Parameters in Bohr-Mottelson Collective Hamiltonian

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating the mass parameter "B" in the context of the Bohr-Mottelson Hamiltonian for a five-dimensional square well potential. The user seeks guidance on determining the width of the potential well in this framework. Suggestions for relevant papers or books that address these calculations are requested. Participants emphasize the importance of understanding the underlying physics and mathematical formulations involved. The conversation highlights a need for resources that clarify these specific aspects of nuclear physics.

Homework Statement
how do I find the value of the mass parameter and the width of the potential well present in the Bohr-Mottelson Hamiltonian?
Relevant Equations
-hbar^2/2B
Hi all
I was reading a certain paper that involves solving the Bohr-Mottelson Hamiltonian for a 5dimential square well potential, the B-M Hamiltoian reads:

my question is just how do I calculate the mass parameter "B" for a certain nuclei, and with a 5D infinite potential well how do I get the width of the potential well?
I will appreciate any help, thanks in advance.

can any one suggest a paper or a book that address these points
 
(a) The polarisation pattern is elliptical with maximum (1,1) and minimum (-1,-1), and anticlockwise in direction. (b) I know the solution is a quarter-wave plate oriented π/4, and half-wave plate at π/16, but don't understand how to reach there. I've obtained the polarisation vector (cos π/8, isin π/8) so far. I can't find much online guidance or textbook material working through this topic, so I'd appreciate any help I can get. Also, if anyone could let me know where I can get more...
