We present an analysis of the intensity of 2-particle transfer reactions in the Interacting Boson Model (IBM), and in the Boson Coherent-State framework, as a tool to study nuclear phase transitions. We study transfer reactions between two ground states, and between the ground state and the band head of the beta-vibrational band. We suggest characteristic fingerprints that should allow experimentalists to identify the critical points of the nuclear phase transition. Two analytical solutions, X(5) and E(5), have been proposed recently for two of the critical points. We present a study within the Relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov model (RHB), using Potential-Energy Surfaces (PES), to test whether the initial approximations made in deriving the analytical solutions are valid.

The low-lying positive and negative parity states of even–even [Formula: see text]Nd isotopes are studied using the interacting boson model (IBM). The negative parity states are involved within the IBM model by adding a single angular momentum ([Formula: see text]) boson with intrinsic negative parity [Formula: see text]-boson to [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]-bosons model space. For these nuclei, the potential energy surfaces [Formula: see text], transition probability [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are calculated. Phase transition from the [Formula: see text] limit to the [Formula: see text] limit is observed in the chain and the critical point has been determined for [Formula: see text]Nd isotope. It is found that the calculated positive and negative parity energy spectra of Nd-isotopes agree well with the experimental data.

Interacting Boson Model (IBM -1) has been used to study the energy levels and [Formula: see text] transition rates in Ba–Dy ([Formula: see text]) isotones. A simplified Hamiltonian is used which is written in the creation and annihilation form and for each nucleus, by fitting the selected experimental energy levels and [Formula: see text] transition rates with the calculated ones to get the best model parameters. Using the (IBM) Hamiltonian with an intrinsic state formalism, the potential energy surfaces (PES) for even–even Ba–Dy nuclei have been obtained and the contour plot of PES show that the shape phase transitions from spherical [Formula: see text] to deformed shape [Formula: see text] has been determined for the [Formula: see text], while [Formula: see text]Ce, [Formula: see text]Nd, [Formula: see text]Sm, [Formula: see text]Gd and [Formula: see text]Dy nuclei are deformed and have rotational-like characters. The behavior of energy and [Formula: see text] ratios in the ground state band are examined.

Shape phase transitions in even and odd systems are reviewed within the frameworks of the Interacting Boson Model(IBM) and the Interacting Boson Fermion Model(IBFM), respectively and compared with geometric models when available. We discuss, in particular, the case of an odd j = 3/2 particle coupled to an even-even boson core that undergoes a transition from the spherical limit U(5) to the γ-unstable limit O(6). Energy spectrum and electromagnetic transitions, in correspondence of the critical point, display behaviors qualitatively similar to those of the even core and they agree qualitatively with the model based on the E (5/4) boson-fermion symmetry. We describe then the UBF(5) to SUBF(3) transition when a fermion is allowed to occupy the orbits j = 1/2, 3/2, 5/2. The additional particle characterizes the properties at the critical points in finite quantum systems.

In this study we calculated the energy levels of low lying structure for 104 – 108 Cd isotopes and the reduced transition B(E2) of even – even Cd nuclei for A=104,106, 108 by using" the interaction boson model IBM-1" and compared with experimental values .The ratio R(4/2) for the energy levels for 41 + and 21 + states were also calculated for those isotopes .The 104 – 108 Cd nuclei in " U(5) – O(6) transitional symmetry" were studied .The contour plots of the potential energy surfaces (P E S) was calculate for the isotopes above .

The interacting boson model (IBM) with intrinsic coherent state (characterized by and ) is used to describe the nuclear second order shape phase transition (denoted E(5)) between the spherical oscillator U(5) and the -soft rotor O(6) structural limits. The potential energy surfaces (PES's) have been derived and the critical points of the phase transition have been determined . The model is examined for the spectra of even-even neutron rich xenon isotopic chain. The best adopted parameters in the IBM Hamiltonian for each nucleus have been adjusted to reproduce as closely as possible the experimental selected numbers of excitation energies of the yrast band,  by using computer simulated search program.Using the best fitted parameters , the  energy ratios for the  levels are calculated and compared to those of the O(6) and U(5) dynamical symmetry limits.122Xe and 132Xe are considered as examples for the two O(6) and U(5) dynamical symmetry limits

In this paper, even-even 104−106Ru isotopes have been studied the ground state bands using Matlab computer code (IBM-1.Mat). We apply the interacting boson model-1 (IBM-1) formula for O(6) symmetry in Ru isotopes with neutron N = 60, 62. The theoretical energy levels up to spin-parity 12+ have been obtained for 104−106Ru isotopes. The yrast states, gamma band, beta band, and B(E2) values are calculated for these nuclei. The published experimental and calculated R4/2 values indicate that the even-even 104−106Ru isotopes have O(6) dynamic symmetry. The present results have been compared to the published experimental data and are found good harmony with each other. The outcome of our investigation of the potential energy surfaces (PES) of both isotopes belonging to O(6) character.
