Abstract

The reduced electric quadrupole transition probability (B(E2)↑) between 0⁺ ground state and 2⁺ state in nuclei is an important quantity because it represents basic nuclear information on energies of low-lying levels in the nuclei. It provides knowledge about deformation of nuclei. In this study, the B(E2)↑ values of some even-even nuclei in 110 A 190 region have been estimated by using artificial neural network (ANN) method which is a non-linear approximator. The present study shows that ANN is found to be useful in order to predict B(E2)↑ values of even-even nuclei in this region.
