Backbendingand shape changesin odd-a lanthanum isotopes (LA)

We have developed a special computing code for calculation of nuclear shape changes and quadruple moments (Q) of Lanthanum Isotopes. It has been shown from these calculations that by increasing neutron number, deformation parameter also increase for heavier isotopes which means more deformation from spherical shape. By comparison with Nilsson level diagrams we can infer quadruple deformation parameter (β2) and calculate quadruple moments of these isotopes.
