Abstract
PROPERTIES of low lying levels of neon-21 have been the subject of extensive studies1–8 in recent years and the strong coupling collective model with K band mixing has been used for their interpretation2,4,6,9,10. Two states, which are predominantly members of K= 1/2 and K= 3/2 rotational bands and have Jπ= 1/2+ and 9/2+ respectively, are predicted9,10 near to 3 MeV excitation in neon-21. In addition, Freeman10 has predicted a Jπ=5/2+ state near 3 MeV and a 3/2+ state near 3.5 MeV, while Davidson9 shows three states of 3/2+, 1/2+ and 5/2+ between 3.5 and 4 MeV. In this calculation an additional K = 1/2 band, based on Nilsson orbit 6, was included.
