High-spin states and the boson cutoff in rotational nuclei: Application to even-even Dy nuclei

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
We present a model in which core excitations within the framework of the interacting boson model are studied. First, a detailed study of high-spin states and backbending in the even-even /sup 154en-dash164/Dy nuclei is carried out. We also address the problem of the cutoff in the yrast B(E2) values in rotational nuclei. Application, again for the even-even /sup 154en-dash164/Dy nuclei, is performed in detail. We also discuss the intrinsic quadrupole moments and compare them to the existing data. We relate the present description, using the classical limit expressions for a given sd-boson Hamiltonian, to the geometrical study of the even-even Dy nuclei, which also is carried out in detail.
