Our results of the PTSM calculations (2005) The Pair-truncated shell model (PTSM) reproduces energy levels and electromagnetic properties of doublet bands of doubly-odd nuclei with mass A~130. Band structure of doublet bands is well explained by the movement of two spins of a neutron and a proton, weakly coupled with the even-even core. Thus the PTSM provides us with an ideal tool for a study of doublet bands. However… The calculation becomes quite difficult because the configuration space grows up as the number of valence nucleon increases. We propose a very simple model !

Summary We propose a simple model (QCM) for doublet bands in doubly-odd nuclei, where the neutron and the proton are coupled with the core through quadrupole interactions. The model well reproduces energy spectra and electromagnetic properties of doublet bands. The mechanism of the strong staggering of B(M1)/B(E2) ratios is now well understood. It explains why the strong staggering occurs only in the vibrational or transitional region, and not in the deformed region.
More about our model Our model is different from the particle-rotor model in two respects. 1. Information of rotor state is extracted from experimental data of even-even nucleus. 2.All interactions are assumed to be of quadrupole types. Interaction strength
