Description of the shape evolution in the yrast states of ~(186)Pt

186Pt was tested in the framework of IBM-1 and the X(3) model. The results show that186Pt is located close to the shape phase transition point, but the B(E2) values little agree with the X(3) model. The shape evolution in the yrast states of186Pt is also discussed in detail. TRS calculation exhibits a flat bottomed potential at low spin states, but a relatively deep minimum at high spin states. It suggests that a shape evolution from vibrational mode to rotational mode happens in186Pt. The result is in agreement with the E-GOS calculation.
