Efficacy of cranking technique in the study of some neutron-deficient neodymium isotopes

In the present work, the results of calculations on various nuclear structure quantities in even-even neutron-deficient 130-136Nd using Cranked Hatree-Fock Bogoliubov (CHFB) technique have been presented. The various nuclear structure quantities that have been calculated in 130-136Nd isotopes are the yrast spectra, subshell occupation probabilities of various valence orbits and intrinsic quadrupole moments. Besides this, a comparative study of the calculated yrast spectra with the available experimental data as well as with the results of calculations obtained by R.K. Bhat et al. using Variation After Projection (VAP) technique on the same neutron-deficient 130-136Nd isotopes has also been presented
