Quasi-exact solutions for the Bohr Hamiltonian with sextic oscillator potential

Abstract

Abstract A discussion on the quasi-exact solution of the Bohr Hamiltonian with sextic oscillator potential is made by attracting the attention on some recent results of its application to the phase transition from spherical vibrator to a γ-unstable system. More precisely, it is underlined the importance of the solvability order on the structure of the states, especially in the critical point, respectively, in the deformed region of the phase transition.
