Abstract

Eigenfunctions of the collective Bohr Hamiltonian with the Morse potential have been obtained by using the asymptotic iteration method (AIM) for both $γ$ -unstable and rotational structures. $B (E 2)$ transition rates have been calculated and compared to experimental data. Overall good agreement is obtained for transitions within the ground-state band, while some interband transitions appear to be systematically underpredicted in $γ$ -unstable nuclei and overpredicted in rotational nuclei.
