Available experimental level energies were used as input data, and additional observables—excitation energies, energy ratios, reduced electric transition probabilities <i>B</i>(<i>E</i>2), and electric quadrupole moments (<span>({{Q}_{l}})</span>)—were calculated with the IBMT.FOR code. The IBM-1 Hamiltonian was diagonalized for <i>N</i> = 9 bosons, with effective charges fitted via the B(E2).dat input scheme. The results show that IBM-1 reproduces the low-spin spectrum and transition rates well, while VMI and GVMI better capture the upward curvature of the ground band at higher spin.
