Abstract
The lifetimes of the 2+1and 4+1 states of 208Po were measured in the α -transfer reaction 204Pb (12C , 8Be ) 208Po by γ -ray spectroscopy utilizing the recoil distance Doppler shift method. The newly extracted transition strengths alongside ones of the decay of the 2+2 state were compared to the results of large-scale shell-model calculations using an effective interaction derived from the realistic CD-Bonn nucleon-nucleon potential. The comparison indicates the importance of the quadrupole isovector excitations in the valence shell for a fine tuning of the two-body matrix elements of the shell-model interaction.
