DAMPING OF THE HIGH-SPIN NEUTRON HOLE ORBITALS OF THE PB-207

The neutron strength functions of the high-spin 1g(7/2) and 1h(11/2) h ole states of the Pb-207 have been deduced within the formalism of the hole-core vibrational coupling scheme. The attenuation of the shell-m odel strengths of these two high-spin hole states have been compared w ith the distribution of the neutron strength functions of the discrete 1h(9/2), and 1i(13/2) states. The theoretical results have been discu ssed in the light of the recent experimental findings on the neutron h ole orbitals of the Pb-207 nucleus. Side by the side the implication o f the present research works has been reviewed on the basis of the oth er existing theoretical calculations on the high-spin neutron hole sta tes of the Pb-207.
