Group theory of the collective model of the nucleus

In the present paper we extend the group theoretical analysis of a previous publication to obtain explicitly, as a polynomical in sinγ, cosγ, the function φλμlk(γ) required in the discussion of the quadrupole vibrations of the nucleus. The states appearing in the collective model 〈νλμLV〉=F1λ(β) ΣKφλμLK(γ) DL*MK(φi), l= (ν−λ)/2, are then defined, as Fλl(β), DL*MK(φi) are well known. All matrix elements required in the collective model of the nucleus are related then with the expression (λμL;λ′μ′L′;λ″μ″L″= ∂π0ΣKK′K″ (LL′L″KK′K″) φλμLK(γ) φλ′μ′L′K′ (γ) φλ″μ″L″K″ (γ)sin 3γdγ, which is a reduced 3j‐symbol in the O(5) O(3) chain of groups.
