Description

We present results of Skyrme-QRPA calculations of low-energy vibrational states of well-deformed even-even rare-earth nuclei and compare them with experimental data. The performance of the energy functionals and the QRPA is discussed intending preparation for future massive calculation demanded by nuclear astrophysics. Overall, the energies and the reduced transition probabilities of the gamma-vibrational states are reproduced, however, the detail reveals necessity of many-particle many-hole excitations beyond the QRPA. Skyrme-functional SkM* is better than SLy4. Variation of the pairing energy functional in an acceptable range affects a few nuclei. The QRPA is not as successful for the ``beta-vibrational'' states as for the gamma-vibrational states.
