Abstract

Within the framework of theK-harmonic model the wave functions of the18O nucleus are constructed, which correspond to the usual spherical configuration and to the deformed one, where the two last protons and neutrons fill the deformed orbitals belonging to the (2s-1d) shell. Matrix elements of the Coulomb interaction and of the electric multipole of order 2 are calculated. Corrections for the non-orthogonality of wave functions are negligible. Corrections for the elimination of the centre-of-mass motion are surprisingly small in the Coulomb energy. They enable to reduce the effective charge usually necessary for interpreting the experimental values of the reducedE2 transition rates. The Coulomb energy is nearly independent on the deformation parameters and the other quantum numbers,E2 transition rates attain maximum values in the vicinity of their SU(3) values for 2→0 and 4→2 transitions.
