The roles of static hexadecapole deformation and beyond-mean-field quadrupole-hexadecapole configuration mixing are studied for a selected set of Yb, Hf, W and Os isotopes within the mass range $170 \le A \le 202$, using the…
The electric monopole ($E0$) transition strength $\rho^2$ for the transition connecting the third 0$^+$ level, a "superdeformed" band head, to the "spherical" 0$^+$ ground state in doubly magic $^{40}$Ca has been determined via $e^+e^-$…
