Os isotopes from A = 186 to 192: Structure varies from a moderately gamma soft rotor to close to the O(6) gamma-
independent limit. Describe simply with:

H = - κ Q • Q
κ is just energy scale factor
Ψ’s, B(E2)’s independent of κ
Results depend only on χ [ and, of course, vary with NB ]
Can plot any observable as a set of contours vs. NB and χ.

H has two parameters. A given observable can only specify one of them. What does this imply?
An observable gives a contour of constant values within the triangle
= 2.9R4/2
• At the basic level : 2 observables (to map any point in the symmetry triangle)
• Preferably with perpendicular trajectories in the triangle
A simple way to pinpoint structure. What do we need?

Only provides a locus of structure

At the end, need to normalize energies to first J = 2 state. For now just look at energy ratios
