The r. m. s. radius and the binding energy of oxygen 16 are calculated for several different internueleon potentials. These potentials all fit the low-energy data for two nucleons, they have hard cores of differing radii, and they include the Gammel-Thaler potential (core radius 0·4 fermi). The calculated r. m. s. radii range from 1·5 f for a potential with core radius 0·2 f to 2·0 f for a core radius 0·6 f. The value obtained from electron scattering experiments is 2·65 f. The calculated binding energies range from 256 MeV for a core radius 0·2 f to 118 MeV for core 0·5 f. The experimental value of binding energy is 127·3 MeV. The 25% discrepancy in the calculated r. m. s. radius may be due to the limitations of harmonic oscillator wave functions used in the unperturbed system.

In the relativistic mean field (RMF) calculations usually the basis expansion method is employed. For this one uses single harmonic oscillator (HO) basis functions. A proper description of the ground state nuclear properties of spherical nuclei requires a large (around 20) number of major oscillator shells in the expansion. In halo nuclei where the nucleons have extended spatial distributions, the use of single HO basis for the expansion is inadequate for the correct description of the nuclear properties, especially that of the surface region. In order to rectify these inadequacies, in the present work an orthonormal basis composed of two HO basis functions having different sizes is proposed. It has been shown that for a typical case of (A=11) the ground state constructed using two-HO wave functions extends much beyond the second state or even third excited state of the single HO wave function. To demonstrate its usefulness explicit numerical RMF calculations have been carried out using this procedure for a set of representative spherical nuclei ranging from 16 O to 208 Pb . The binding energies, charge radii and density distributions have been correctly reproduced in the present scheme using a much smaller number of major shells (around 10) in the expansion.

The spectroscopies of 190 and 21 Ne (both eleven-neutron systems) are compared. The 1-+ [211 iJ, t+ [220il and t- [lOttl bands are observed in both nuclei. On the basis of these similarities 190 is assumed to be a prolate rotor like 21 Ne. If then the recently studied IBN ground state is also considered to be a deformed system (a one-proton hole in the 190 nucleus), both the 1- ground state spin and the sudden change in the systematics of the two-neutron binding energies can be understood.
