摘要We reinvestigate the collective effects of the retardation as well as the bending on the Coulomb excitation cross sections and also on the B(E2) strengths of some neutron-rich isotopes using the intermediate energy Coulomb excitation theory. It is found that the B(E2) strengths extracted from the experimental Coulomb excitation cross section data get suppressed approximately by 6%. Furthermore, the obtained B(E2) strengths in the energy range 30-100 MeV/A are found to be in better agreement with the corresponding values known from other sources, than those obtained by using the recoil-corrected relativistic Coulomb excitation theory.
