title = "Quantitative description of configuration mixing in the interacting boson model",
abstract = "In many nuclei the coexistence of two quite different structures in the same energy region is manifest in the experimental data. Generally there is configuration mixing between these structures. We present a new, general technique for providing a quantitative description of configuration mixing in nuclei. The technique uses the interacting boson model for protons and neutrons to make separate descriptions of the different configurations, which are then mixed using an appropriate mixing hamiltonian. Examples are given using the mercury and molybdenum isotopes.",

note = "Funding Information: We wish to thank Professor F. lachello for calling this problem to our attention and for numerous helpful andencouraging discussions. We thank Dr. J. L. Wood for providing us with information regarding recent experimental data for the mercury isotopes and for many discussions and suggestions regarding core excitations. We thank G. Molnar for recent information on the molybdenum isotopes and M. Sambataro for providing us with the IBM parameters used in the fit to '4ZMo58 . Finally we thank Professor R. Siemssen for the hospitality provided to us at the Kernfysisch Versneller Instituut, Groningen, where much of this work was carried out. This work was funded in part by the Stichting voor Fundamenteel Onderzoek der Materie (FOM), by the National Science Foundation, Grant No .
