Correlating charge radius with quadrupole deformation and $B(E2)$ in atomic nuclei

Abstract

A very good linear correlation is found between the four-point charge radius relation $\delta R_{2p-2n}(Z,N)$ with that of quadrupole deformation data in even-even nuclei. This results in a further improved charge radius relation that holds in a precision of about 5$\times 10^{-3}$ fm. Such correlations are also seen in global nuclear models, their precisions, however, are not enough to be consistent with the experimental data. The new relation between charge radii and deformation of even-even nuclei can be generalized to the reduced electric quadrupole transition probability $B(E2)$ between the first $2^{+}$ state and the $0^{+}$ ground state, and the mean lifetime $\tau$ of the first 2${}^{+}$ state.
