Nuclear Structure of 122-134 Xe Isotopes

2012

The potential energy surfaces, V(β, γ), for a series of Xenon isotopes 122−134 Xe have been calculated. The relatively flat potential to 130 Xe and energy ratio E + 4 1 /E + 2 1 = 2.2 show E(5) symmetry to the nucleus which is laying in the transition region from γ-soft to vibrational characters. The interacting boson approximation model (IBA − 1) has been used in calculating levels energy and electromagnetic transition probabilities B(E2) ′ s. Back bending is observed for 122−130 Xe. The calculated values are compared to the available experimental data and show reasonable agreement.
