Nuclear structure of low-lying states in Zn-60,Zn-62,Zn-64,Zn-66 - A shell model description

摘要

Shell model calculation has been performed for even-even Zn-60,Zn-62,Zn-64,Zn-66 using NuShellX code in f(5/2)pg(9/2) model space with two different effective Hamiltonians, viz. JUN45 and jj44b. The low-lying structure is studied up to angular momentum, I = 10h by calculating level energies, reduced transition probabilities, occupation numbers, lifetimes, and quadrupole moments. The results of the calculations are compared with the available experimental data. It is observed that the inclusion of 1g(9/2) orbital in the model space is essential to understand nuclear structure in these isotopes. Shell model calculation with an improved set of effective Hamiltonian parameters and inclusion of 1f(7/2) orbital in the model space are necessary in order to produce finer agreement with the experimental observations.
