Abstract:

Recent exact numerical calculations of the influence of deformation vibrations on electric quadrupole transitions in deformed even nuclei were extended to a study of electric monopole transitions in such nuclei. These monopole transitions can provide an insight into the nature of the excited O states, in particular into the excited KO beta bands. Comparison with experiment shows that model predictions are adequate for the very heaviest nuclei but are far too great for nuclei in the rare earth region.
