Description of intruder levels in the 162,164,166Dy nuclei by two different algebraic approaches

In this paper, we tried to describe both normal and intruder levels of the ground and first excited beta and gamma rotational bands of ^162,164,166Dy deformed nuclei in the framework of the interacting boson model. A normal Hamiltonian of SU(3) dynamical symmetry limit is extended by adding a 2p-2 h excitation term. Also, the results are compared with the predictions of the partial dynamical symmetry for these levels of considered nuclei. The results show that, this extension removes the degeneracy suggested by the pure SU(3) symmetry and makes satisfactory agreement with the experimental counterparts for the energy levels, too. Also, a comparison between the results of this extended formalism and partial dynamical symmetry shows the advantages of the first one in the description of intruder levels, whereas the latter, makes exact results for the normal energy levels of beta and gamma energy bands. The predictions of pure SU(3), partial dynamical symmetry SU(3) and mixed formalism for different quadrupole transition rates between normal and intruder levels of this nucleus are compared with the predictions of pseudo-SU(3) model and the advantages of each model have explained in detail.
