Rotational bands of positive and negative parity are frequently found experimentally in heavy deformed even-even nuclei along with their corresponding $E2$ intra-band and $E1$ inter-band transitions. In $SU(3)$ symmetry-based models,…
Inter-band B(E2) transition strengths between different normal parity bands in 163Dy and 165Er are described using the pseudo-SU(3) model. The Hamiltonian includes Nilsson single-particle energies, quadrupole-quadrupole and pairing…
We calculate reduced $B(E2)$ electromagnetic transition strengths for light nuclei of mass numbers $B=8,12,16,20,24$ and $32$ within the Skyrme model. We find that the predicted transition strengths are of the correct order of magnitude and…
We describe electromagnetic and favored \alpha-transitions to rotational bands in odd-mass nuclei built upon a single particle state with angular momentum projection $\Omega=\frac{1}{2}$ in the region $88 \le Z \le 98$. We use the particle…
Energy levels of the four lowest bands in 160,162,164Dy and 168Er, B(E2) transition strengths between the levels, and the B(M1) strength distribution of the ground state, all calculated within the framework of pseudo-SU(3) model, are…
Whereas previous works for B(E2)'s in the even-even Ti isotopes focused on yrast transitions we here also consider inter-band transitions to a second group i.e. states like 1_{1} , 2_{2}, 3_{1} , 4_{2} , 5_{1}e.t.c.. We focus on variations…
Spectroscopic observables such as electromagnetic transitions strengths can be related to the properties of the intrinsic mean-field wave function when the latter are strongly deformed, but the standard rotational formulas break down when…
Electromagnetic transitions from deformed structures based on $\alpha$ configurations or on heavier clusters are discussed, drawing the link between multiparticle-multihole excited bands and cluster structures. Enhanced E2 and E1…
A recent high-resolution $\alpha$, $X$-ray, and $\gamma$-ray coincidence-spectroscopy experiment offered first glimpse of excitation schemes of isotopes along $\alpha$-decay chains of $Z=115$. To understand these observations and to make…
The available data for E2 transition strengths in the region between neutron-deficient Hf and Pt isotopes are far from complete. More and precise data are needed to enhance the picture of structure evolution in this region and to test…
A new three parameter formula is proposed for ground-state bands in even-even soft rotors or called transitional nuclei. The new formula blends those of very soft nuclei and well deformed nuclei. Especially, it is found in fact that the…
Magnetic dipole strength functions have been deduced from averages of a large number of $M1$ transition strengths calculated within the shell model for the nuclides $^{90}$Zr, $^{94}$Mo, $^{95}$Mo, and $^{96}$Mo. An enhancement of $M1$…
It is shown that strong 0+2 -> 0+1 E0 transitions provide a clear signature of phase transitional behavior in finite nuclei. Calculations using the IBA show that these transition strengths exhibit a dramatic and robust increase in…
An earlier measurement on the 4$^+$ to 2$^+$ radiative transition in $^8$Be provided the first electromagnetic signature of its dumbbell-like shape. However, the large uncertainty in the measured cross section does not allow a stringent…
Background: Mixed-symmetry 2+ states in vibrational nuclei are characterized by a sign change between dominant proton and neutron valence-shell components with respect to the fully symmetric 2+ state. The sign can be measured by a…

Experimental results of E2 transition probabilities or B(E2) values for the known first 2$^{+}$ states in 447 even-even nuclei have been compiled and evaluated. The evaluation policies for the analysis of experimental data have been…

Electromagnetic observables are able to give insight into collective and emergent features in nuclei, including nuclear clustering. These observables also provide strong constraints for ab initio theory, but comparison of these observables…
We derive analytic expressions for the energies and $B(E2)$-transition probabilities in the states of the ground and $\gamma$ bands of heavy deformed nuclei within a collective Vector-Boson Model with SU(3) dynamical symmetry. On this basis…
