Reliability and Validity of Generalized Grodzins Relation

Rakesh Kumar Pandit

Abstract: In this paper, an attempt is made to check the reliability of generalized Grodzins empirical relation on B(E2) transition probabilities. The data on available values of transition probabilities is taken for nuclei which possess large neutron excess and are close to the neutron drip line. A comparison of B(E2) transition probability values calculated by using generalized Grodzins relation with the experimentally measured values for the various transitions between the angular momentum states of the ground state band is presented for some unstable dripline nuclei such as 128,130Ce, 150Nd, 152,154Sm, 152,154,156Gd, 156,162Dy, 168Er, 172,174Yb and 130-136U.
