Description of shape coexistence in ${}^{96}$Zr based on the collective quadrupole Bohr Hamiltonian

D. A. Sazonov, E. A. Kolganova, T. M. Shneidman +3

Experimental data on ${}^{96}$Zr indicate coexisting spherical and deformed structures with small mixing amplitudes. We investigate the properties of the low-lying collective states…
