B(E2) Evaluation for 0+ to 2+ Transitions in Even-Even Nuclei    [PDF]

B. Pritychenko, M. Birch, M. Horoi, B. Singh

A new B(E2) evaluation of even-even nuclei is conducted by Brookhaven-McMaster-Central Michigan collaboration. This work is a continuation of the previous USNDP evaluation and was motivated by a large number of recent measurements and nuclear theory developments. It includes an extended compilation, data evaluation procedures and shell model calculations. The subset of B(E2) recommended values for nuclei of relevance to the double-beta decay problem will be presented. Evaluation policies of experimental data and systematics will be discussed. Future plans for completion of the B(E2;0+ to 2+) evaluation project will be outlined.
