Energy spectra and electromagnetic transition rates of 160,162,164Gd in the projected Hartree-Fock model

Abstract

Band structure and electromagnetic properties of bands of 160,162,164Gd are studied theoretically upto high spin values using self-consisstent mean field theory. Predictions for the band structures are made. A K = 6− isomer at fairly low energy is predicted. Four quasi-particle bands involving i13/2 neutron and h11/2 protons are also studied.
