Abstract

In this article by using OXBASH shell model code the energy levels of Fluorine isotopes 19F – 21F are calculated. This code which is based on one of the most applicable nuclear models, deals with evaluating energy levels. Applying the program for each isotope using the defined codes, introduces several files which each file contains a set of data. Meanwhile, the ground state of excitation energy evaluated by OXBASH code together with energy levels and also probable places for nucleons’ placements in each energy level. Programs will be reliable only when results meet experimental procedures. A compilation of SD-shell energy levels calculated with the USD Hamiltonian and has been published around 1988. A comparison had been made between our results and the available experimental data to test theoretical shell model description of nuclear structure in Fluorine isotopes. The calculated energy spectrum is in good agreement with the available experimental data..
