Description

It is shown that the ground state of deformed nuclei can be considered as a condensate of bosons that do not have a well-defined angular momentum. Values for the quadrupole mome-t and the particle number that are very close to the values obtained using the full boson wave function are obtained by retaining only the s- and d-parts of the boson wave function. By comparing with the many-shell (realistic) situation we found the limitations of the single-shell calculations. (orig.)
