ROTATIONAL MOTION IN A MANY PARTICLI SYSTEM. PART I. GENERAL THEORY. PART II. INTRINSIC EXCITATION OF EVEN-EVEN NUCLEI

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4732714
On the basis of quantum mechanics it is shown that in an N-particle system the whole motion can be divided into three parts: the center-of-mass motion, the rigid motion as a whole, and the intrinsic translational motion. The resulting formulas are similar to those in classical mechanics. Intrinsic excitations of the rotational levels of eveneven nuclei and the intrinsic structure of the wave functions were investigated without using the Hamiltonian of the Bohr model. The rotational levels of negative parity were treated on the same basis as the levels of positive parity. The importance of the Coriolis interaction is stressed in connection with the M1 transition. The method of analyzing the experimental data without using any model was developed. Examples are given for several nuclei. (auth)
