Title: Electron scattering studies of the ground state rotational band of /sup 152/Sm

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)

Electron scattering cross sections have been measured for the 0/sup +/, 2/sup +/, 4/sup +/, and 6/sup +/ levels of the ground state rotational band of /sup 152/Sm for effective momentum transfers between 0.3 and 2.9 fm/sup -1/. The charge and transition charge densities for these states have been inferred from a combined analysis of electron scattering, muonic atom, and Coulomb excitation data. These densities are compared to the predictions of a mean field theory that describes this nucleus by a triaxial microscopic calculation in the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approximation using a density-dependent force. The densities have been determined with a precision that is sufficient for the comparison of theoretical calculations with the measured densities to be sensitive to the pairing and surface properties of the effective interaction.
