Projected Hartree-Fock calculations forV52,53

Abstract

The structure of the low-lying nuclear states in neutron rich isotopes of vanadium $^{52,53}\mathrm{V}$ is investigated. The investigations are carried out in the framework of Hartree-Fock projection formalism by employing a realistic nucleon-nucleon interaction. All the valence nucleons outside the inert $^{40}\mathrm{Ca}$ core are considered to be active in the configuration space of the full $\mathrm{fp}$ shell. The energy levels, static electromagnetic moments, and the electromagnetic transition probabilities are evaluated from the band-mixing calculations, wherein the lowest few energetically close intrinsic states of the nuclei are taken into account. The results of the present calculations are in fair agreement with the available experimental data.
