Monte Carlo mixing simulation of the decay out of superdeformed bands in {sup 194}Hg

Journal Article · · Physical Review C

A simple two level mixing model is employed to perform a Monte Carlo simulation for the decay out of the superdeformed bands SD-1 and SD-3 in {sup 194}Hg. An exponential spin dependence of the interaction between superdeformed and normally deformed states is applied. Average intraband intensities and transition quadrupole moments are determined at each spin. The simple two level mixing approach is consistent with more sophisticated theoretical models. The Monte Carlo approach allows one to determine probabilities for the reproduction of the experimental intensity patterns and transition quadrupole moments. An interaction of v{approx}0.5 eV was determined for spin 12{Dirac_h} in the yrast SD band. The results show that the decay out of the yrast and excited SD bands in {sup 194}Hg can be described with the same spin dependent interaction.
