Generator coordinate method calculation of the E2 decay lifetime of shape isomers in the actinide region

We apply the generator coordinate method in a fully microscopic calculation of the E2 decay lifetime of the shape isomeric states of 236U, 238U, and 240Pu. The basis states have been generated by constrained Hartree-Fock Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer calculations with the SkM* force. Triaxial quadrupole deformations have been included. Implications upon the decay lifetime of the quasidegeneracy of the isomeric state and the one-phonon excitation in the first well are examined.SCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
