A method is derived for calculating matrix elements of a two-body interaction in wave functions which were classified in part I interms of the group U 2- . For simplicity, a Cartesian basis of intrinsic functions is introduced in which the one-dimensional oscillators in x, y and z are separately diagonal. An application to 24 Mg in L-S coupling shows very little mixing of the quantum number K but an appreciable (10 to 20 %) mixing of U 3 representations (λμ). Overall agreement with experiment is quantitatively only tolerable but the main pattern of the spectrum is undoubtedly given by the lowest representation (84). On this basis, suggestions are made concerning the type of spectra to be expected for even and odd parity levels of the even-even nuclei in the mass region 16 < A < 40.

The structure of the Ζ,Ν < 50 nuclei is examined in a model space consisting of the 0g9/2, 1p1/2, 1p3/2 and the 0f5/2 hole orbitals outside the doubly closed 100Sn core. The effective interaction for this model space is derived by introducing second order corrections to the Sussex matrix elements, while the one-hole energies are deduced by a least square fit to the observed levels. The results of the calculation are found to be in very satisfactory agreement with experiment for all nuclei with 38<Ζ<46 but for Ζ<38 this agreement begins to deteriorate. Such a feature possibly indicates the appearance of deformation and the breaking of the Ν=50 core. The wavefunctions of the calculation are used to determine double β matrix elements in the Ge, Se, Sr and Kr isotopes.

A systematic shell-model study is performed to study the spectroscopic properties from light to heavy nuclei, such as binding energies, energy levels, electromagnetic properties, and β decays. The importance of cross-shell excitation is shown in the spectroscopic properties of neutron-rich boron, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen isotopes. A special case is presented for low-lying structure of 14C. The weakly bound effect of proton 1s1/2 orbit is necessary for the description of the mirror energy difference in the nuclei around A=20. Some possible isomers are predicted in the nuclei in the southeast region of 132Sn based on a newly suggested Hamiltonian. A preliminary study on the nuclei around 208Pb are given to show the ability of the shell model in the heavy nuclei.

The half-life for two-neutrino double-beta decay has been calculated for 82Se, within the framework of the deformed shell model (DSM) based on Hartree–Fock states employing a modified Kuo interaction in 2p3/2, 1f5/2, 2p1/2, and 1g9/2 space with single particle energies (relative to a 56Ni core) for the four orbitals taken as 0.0, 0.78, 1.08, and 4.25 MeV, respectively. A reasonable description is obtained for the spectroscopic properties of yrast levels in 82Se, and similarly in the past 82Kr was studied successfully using DSM. The half-life calculated using DSM is ∼3.56 × 1020 a compared to the experimental value (0.92 ± 0.07) × 1020 a. We have also recalculated the half-life by including the 1f7/2 orbit in the preceding model space using the fpg interaction introduced by Sorlin et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 092501 (2002)). The calculated half-life is 2.05 × 1019 a (0.58 × 1020 a if we include the quenching factor of 0.77).

The properties of nuclei with 39≤Ζ≤47 and Ν=51-52 are investigated in large scale shell-model calculations. The doubly closed nucleus 100Sn is selected as the reference state and the nuclei under examination are described in terms of proton holes and one up two neutrons outside the inert core. The proton holes are distributed in a model space consisting of the orbitals g9/2, p1/2, p3/2 while f5/2 is sometimes also considerd. Similary the model space for the neutron particles in­ cludes the orbitals g7/2, d5/2, d3/2, s1/2 and in certain cases h11/2. The effective two-body interaction and the matrix elements of the effective operators were deter­ mined by introducing second-order corrections to the Sussex matrix elements. The single proton holes as well as the single-neutron energies were treated as parameters which were determined by least-squares fit to the observed levels of 39≤Ζ≤47, Ν=50 and Ν=51 respectively. The results of the calculation were found to be in satisfactory agreement with experimental data and this enable us to make predictions about the properties of some exotic nuclei in the vicinity of 100Sn.
