By extending a method developed recently for the electron gas problem to the case of even-even spherical nuclei, corrections to the random phase or harmonic description of the vibrational spectrum were obtained. The calculation, which was based on the conventional pairing plus quadrupole force effective hamiltonian, indicates a systematnc sequence of higher approximations taking into account successively more complicated phonon-phonon and phononquasiparticle pair interactions. The approximation, which includes only the leading phonon-phonon interaction in its effect on the one and two phonon states, is in principle rich enough to allow all of the observed orderings of the two phonon triplet. The case of Ni/sup 62/ was studied in detail, with all parameters except the strength of the quadrupole force taken directly from the work of Kisslinger and Sorensen and the latter constant readjusted so that the improved theory gives the energy of the first 2/sup +/ state. A parameterfree accord to the ordering (0/sup +/, 2/ sup +/, 4/sup +/) of the two phonon state is obtained, though the energies are on the whole high. The main defects of the calculation are discussed. (auth)
