Multipole strength inC12from the (e,e’α) reaction for momentum transfers up to 0.61fm−1
1995
We have excited the giant resonance region in $^{12}\mathrm{C}$ via inelastic electron scattering, and have measured the first complete angular correlations for charged particle emission for this reaction for four values of momentum transfer ranging from 0.24 ${\mathrm{fm}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}1}$ to 0.61 ${\mathrm{fm}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}1}$. By analyzing the \ensuremath{\alpha}-emission channels via the Legendre and resonance formalisms, we unambiguously determined the multipole contributions to the total cross section for \ensuremath{\alpha} emission to the ground state of $^{8}\mathrm{Be}$, and have set limits on these contributions for \ensuremath{\alpha} emission to the first…
Investigation of beta strength functions by neutron and gamma-ray spectroscopy
1979
Abstract Neutron spectra from the decay of the β− delayed neutron precursors 55.6 sec 87Br, 24.5 sec 137I, 2.05 sec 85As and 1.71 sec 135Sb have been studied with high resolution 3He ionization chambers. By γ-ray measurements, the partial neutron emission probabilities to excited states in 84Se and 134Te have been determined independently. For the neutron-emitter nuclei 87Kr and 137Xe, from which neutron decay proceeds only to the ground states of the final nuclei, 86Kr and 136Xe, unique information on the shape of the β− strength function Sβ(E) is obtained. For the emitter nuclei 85Se and 135Te, correlations between neutron transition energies and differences in level energies in 84Se and …
RPA calculations with Gaussian expansion method
2009
The Gaussian expansion method (GEM) is extensively applied to the calculations in the random-phase approximation (RPA). We adopt the mass-independent basis-set that has been tested in the mean-field calculations. By comparing the RPA results with those obtained by several other available methods for Ca isotopes, using a density-dependent contact interaction and the Woods-Saxon single-particle states, we confirm that energies, transition strengths and widths of their distribution are described by the GEM bases to good precision, for the $1^-$, $2^+$ and $3^-$ collective states. The GEM is then applied to the self-consistent RPA calculations with the finite-range Gogny D1S interaction. The sp…
Skyrme-force parametrization: Least-squares fit to nuclear ground-state properties.
1986
We investigate systematically the possibilities and the limits of the Skyrme force for reproducing nuclear ground-state properties in a spherical Hartree-Fock calculation. This investigation is performed by means of least-squares fits of the force parameters to the measured binding energy, diffraction radius, and surface width of eight selected nuclei. Particular emphasis is put on the density dependence of the interaction, which turns out to be determined mainly by the surface width. The least-squares fitting procedure yields the best-fit parameters together with uncertainties on them, and it also allows one to estimate the uncertainties of an extrapolation to other fields, e.g., nuclear m…
Strength ofJπ=1+Gamow-Teller and isovector spin monopole transitions in double-β-decay triplets
2014
In this work we study systematically the energetics and intensity distributions of Gamow-Teller (GT${}^{\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}}$) and isovector spin monopole (IVSM${}^{\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}}$) transitions from the ground states of the pairs ($^{76}\mathrm{Ge}$,$^{76}\mathrm{Se}$), ($^{82}\mathrm{Se}$,$^{82}\mathrm{Kr}$), ($^{100}\mathrm{Mo}$,$^{100}\mathrm{Ru}$), ($^{116}\mathrm{Cd}$,$^{116}\mathrm{Sn}$), ($^{128}\mathrm{Te}$,$^{128}\mathrm{Xe}$), ($^{130}\mathrm{Te}$,$^{130}\mathrm{Xe}$), and ($^{136}\mathrm{Xe}$,$^{136}\mathrm{Ba}$), of double-beta-decay initial and final nuclei, to the ${J}^{\ensuremath{\pi}}={1}^{+}$ excited states of the intermediate odd-odd nuclei $^{76}\…
(e,e′f)-Coincidence Experiments on Uranium Isotopes
1986
(e,e′f)-coincidence experiments represent the most powerful tool to investigate the decay properties of giant multipole resonances, especially of the isoscalar giant quadrupole resonance (GQR), in heavy nuclei. Besides the advantages of the inelastic electron scattering, the coincidence between the fission fragments and the scattered electron causes a complete suppression of the huge radiation tail. The study of the fission decay of giant resonances in heavy nuclei provides interesting information about the coupling of the collective phenomena of fission and giant resonances. In particular the fission decay of the GQR has been subject of controversial experimental studies, using hadrons [1]…
Giant resonances in unstable oxygen isotopes
1999
Abstract Electromagnetic and nuclear breakup of the neutron-rich Oxygen isotopes ranging from A = 17 to A = 22 is studied experimentally in reactions at energies around 600 MeV/u. The beams were produced in fragmentation reactions and separated by the GSI Fragment Separator FRS. By measuring the four-momenta of all decay products after inelastic scattering and neutron decay of the projectile, the excitation energy is determined. From the differential cross sections dσ dE ∗ for electromagnetic excitation, the E1-strength distributions can be deduced. For 18,20,22O, low-lying dipole strength is observed, exhausting about 5% of the Thomas Reiche Kuhn sumrule for energies up to 5 MeV above the …
