Indication for a K/sup π/ = 0- octupole band in 150Nd from electron scattering

Description

Recent electron scattering results on the 0.850 MeV level of 150Nd, when analyzed in terms of the interacting boson model, are inconsistent with the interpretation of this level as a pure J/sup π/(K) = 2+(0) state. Very recent (n,n'γ) work has shown this level to be a 1-, 2+ doublet. Assuming this level to be the band head of a ''K/sup π/ = 0-'' octupole band, a simple model is used to predict electron scattering form factors for the 0.850 MeV state and a 3- octupole level observed at 0.931 MeV. Comparison is made between these predicted form factors and recent electron scattering data
