Microscopic foundation of the interacting boson model in thes d-shell nuclei

Starting from an isospin invariant shell-model hamiltonian, we describe a method for deriving microscopically the IBM-hamiltonian appropriate to lights d-shell nuclei. The key ingredients of our approach are:a) the Belyaev-Zelevinsky-Marshalek (BZM) bosonization procedure;b) two successive unitary transformations that extract the “maximally decoupled” collective bosons with angular momentaJ=0(s _ππ ⁺ ,s _νν ⁺ ,s _πν ⁺ ) andJ =2(d _ππ ⁺ ,d _νν ⁺ ,d _πν ⁺ (T=0),d _πν ⁺ (T=1)). The method is applied to obtain the low-energy spectra and the electron scattering form factors for the 0 ₁ ⁺ →2 ₁ ⁺ transitions in²⁰Ne and²⁴Mg. Good agreement with the exact shell-model results is achieved. The inclusion of proton-neutron bosons (s _πν ⁺ ,d _πν ⁺ (T=1),d _πν ⁺ (T=0)), as well as the renormalization of boson parameters due to the non-collective degrees of freedom, are shown to play a crucial role.
