Motivated by new experimental spectra in transfermium mass region, we have investigated broken-pair high-K multiparticle excited states and their rotational bands for the N = 150 isotones around Z = 100, by using the configuration-constrained pairing-deformation-frequency self-consistent total-Routhian-surface (TRS) model. In order to avoid the spurious phase transition encountered in the Bardeen-Copper-Schrieffer (BCS) pairing, the particle-number-conserving method has been employed for pairing calculations. Pairing correlations are remarkably reduced for the rotations of broken-pair multiparticle states. The present configuration-constrained TRS calculations reproduce reasonably existing experimental data. The abnormal feature in the recently observed K π = 8 − bands of 252 No and 250 Fm would be associated with configuration mixing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
