OUTLINE
• Introduction: K. Kumar-idea, D. Cline – the method development and realisation
• Formulae derivation, expectation value of
quadrupole deformation Q and triaxiality cos3δ
• How does it really work - 104Ru example.
Nothing is easy : vibrational energy but shapes?
• Typical stiff axially symmetric rotor 168Er
• Transitional nuclei and important role of triaxiality 186-192Os and 194Pt
• Low lying 0+ states - 72-76 Ge and 96-100Mo
• Higher order invariants - degree of stiffness or softness in Q or cos3δ
• SUMMARY: The information about charge deformation.
The quality of collective quadrupole model descriptions.

A result of Coulomb excitation experiment is the set of electromagnetic matrix elements. It can be 20 ÷ 60 ME for stable beam experiments. mainly E2 collective transitional and diagonal matrix elements:
< f II E2 II i > B(E2; i → f ) < i II E2 II i > spectroscopic quadrupole moment very often signs can be determined, not only absolute values
Comparing the list of experimental E2 matrix elements with model values exhibits neither the uniqueness nor the sensitivity of the data to the collective model parameters.
Quadrupole collectivity produces strong correlations of the E2 matrix elements and the number of significant collective variables is much lower than the number of matrix elements.
The information about charge deformation parameters can be obtained using rotationally invariant products of the quadrupole operators that relate the reduced E2 matrix elements with the quadrupole deformation parameters

• The two basic quadrupole invariants are formed of the quadrupole operator tensorM(E2) in the following way
- where [··· × ···]L stands for the vector coupling to angular momentum L.
- invariants are denoted here up to coefficients as Q2 and Q3 cos 3δ, in order to have a correspondence with collective coordinates, < Q2 > is an overall quadrupole deformation parameter < cos 3δ > is a triaxiality parameter
- since the components of M(E2,µ) with different µ’s commute with each other the expectation values of the E2 invariants can be related to the reduced E2 matrix elements by making intermediate state expansions:
Σ I R > < R I = 1
since the components of M (E2,µ) with different µ’s commute with each otherthe expectation values of the E2 invariants can be related to the reduced matrix elements by making intermediate state expansions:
- S denotes state S and at the same time the spin of state S alone; R and T denotes intermediate states and their spins;
- having the experimental values of the reduced E2 matrix elements, the expectation values of the basic quadrupole invariants <S|Q2|S> and <S|Q3cos3δ IS> for a given state S can be extracted from the experimental data.

Higher order invariants allow to measure a softness of Q 2
and cos3δ
the need of longer excitation pass:
3 intermediate states for σ( Q2) and 5 intermediate states for σ(cos3δ)
SUMMARY
1. Model independent analysis of Coulomb Excitation experiment
(GOSIA) combined with non energy weighted Sum Rules
- powerful tool for quadrupole deformation parameters determination
2. Summation over double, triple or higher products of E2 matrix elements
allowed to measure in model independent way expectation values of
quadrupole deformation parameters.
3. In the future by more complicated excitation paths degree of softness
or stiffness in particular state
4. Nowadays possible mainly for stable nuclei. We got information
for more than 20 cases, including transitional nuclei.
5. Tools are ready for RIA of the new generation

● thanks to the Sum Rules we experimentally deducedthe shapes of many nuclei in their ground and excited states in a model independent way:
