Ex „GQR“ Valence shell 2+p 2+ms 2+n 2+1 Conclusions Vmix Understanding of transition densities requires configurations „beyond the valence shell“. IBM (valence shell model) unable to predict behaviour of transition densities. QPM serves here as „full theory“ (no effective charges,…). IBM (valence shell model) can be considered „effective low-energy theory“ (effective interaction, effective charges,...). Effective models possible because of clear separation of scales (~2 MeV vs. ~20 MeV). „GQR“ Valence shell 2+p 2+ms Vmix 2+n 2+1 21.
