Dependence of B(E2) and B(M1) transition strengths on energy and spin of excited states of 18F

Abstract

The dependence of reduced transition probabilities corresponding to electric quadrupole [B(E2)] and magnetic dipole [B(M1)] transition occurring in [Formula: see text]F nucleus on excitation energy and spin parity of the states involved in the transition has been investigated within the framework of simple potential model based on M3Y interaction. It is found that B(E2) increases with increasing excitation energy irrespective of the spin of excited states while B(M1) is very sensitive to the spin of the excited states and is independent of excitation energy.
