Collective excitations in the transitional nucleiRe163andRe165
2015
Excited states in the neutron-deficient nuclei ${}_{75}^{163}{\mathrm{Re}}_{88}$ and ${}_{75}^{165}{\mathrm{Re}}_{90}$ were populated in the ${}^{106}{\mathrm{Cd}(}^{60}\mathrm{Ni},\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}p2n\ensuremath{\gamma})$ and ${}^{92}{\mathrm{Mo}(}^{78}\mathrm{Kr}$, $3p2n\ensuremath{\gamma})$ fusion-evaporation reactions at bombarding energies of 270 and 380 MeV, respectively. \ensuremath{\gamma} rays were detected at the target position using the JUROGAM spectrometer while recoiling ions were separated in-flight by the RITU gas-filled recoil separator and implanted in the GREAT spectrometer. The energy level schemes for $^{163}\mathrm{Re}$ and $^{165}\mathrm{Re}$ were identifie…
Dispersion relations of wave modes in helium II layers
1973
Dispersion relations of (sound-like) wave modes, which can exist in a helium II layer of arbitrary width, are calculated numerically. The basis of our considerations is the complete system of the linearized Landau-Khalamikov equations, in which only the dissipative processes involved with η and ζ2 are taken into account. Apart from the linearization, no approximation or averaging is performed. The thermal expansion of helium II is taken into account. Symmetry properties of the velocities of flow, usually required, are dropped here. A hint is given as to how all the Khalatnikov coefficients may be measured by sound absorption experiments.
Lipkin method of particle-number restoration to higher orders
2014
Background: On the mean-field level, pairing correlations are incorporated through the Bogoliubov-Valatin transformation, whereupon the particle degrees of freedom are replaced by quasiparticles. This approach leads to a spontaneous breaking of the particle-number symmetry and mixing of states with different particle numbers. In order to restore the particle number, various methods have been employed, which are based on projection approaches before or after variation. Approximate variation-after-projection (VAP) schemes, utilizing the Lipkin method, have mostly been used within the Lipkin-Nogami prescription. Purpose: Without recurring to the Lipkin-Nogami prescription, and using instead st…
Systematic study of the single-state dominance in 2νββ decay transitions
1999
Abstract The single-state-dominance hypothesis (SSDH) states that the decay rates of the two-neutrino double-beta decay are governed by a virtual two-step transition connecting the initial and final ground states through the first 1 + state, 1 l + , of the intermediate odd-odd nucleus, for those odd-odd nuclei where the 1 l + state is the ground state. To investigate the validity of the SSDH we have performed a systematical theoretical analysis of all known double-beta-decay transitions where the SSDH conditions are fulfilled. the calculations are based on the quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA) and the results have been obtained by using realistic single-particle bases and real…
Systematics of the α-decay to rotational states
2006
We analyze \ensuremath{\alpha} decays to rotational states in even-even nuclei by using the stationary coupled channels approach. Collective excitations are described by the rigid rotator model. The \ensuremath{\alpha}-nucleus interaction is given by a double folding procedure using M3Y plus Coulomb nucleon-nucleon forces. We use a harmonic oscillator repulsive potential with one independent parameter, to simulate the Pauli principle. The decaying state is identified with the first resonance inside the resulting pocketlike potential. The energy of the resonant state is adjusted to the experimental Q value by using the depth of the repulsion. We obtained a good agreement with existing experi…
Folding description of the fine structure of α decay to2+vibrational and transitional states
2007
We analyze \ensuremath{\alpha}-decays to ground and ${2}^{+}$ vibrational states in even-even nuclei by using a coupled channels formalism. The \ensuremath{\alpha}-nucleus interaction is simulated by a double folding procedure using M3Y plus Coulomb two-body forces. Collective excitations are described by vibrations of the nuclear surface. We use a repulsive potential, with one independent parameter, in order to simulate Pauli principle and to adjust the energy of the resonant state to the experimental $Q$-value. The decaying state is identified with the zero nodes resonance inside the resulting pocket-like potential. We have found that the fine structure is very sensitive to the strength o…
Study of the low-lying collective states in 94–100Mo isotopes using the MAVA
2006
Abstract A systematic investigation of reduced electric quadrupole decay strengths, B ( E 2 ) and level energies of even 94–100 Mo isotopes is performed using the microscopic anharmonic vibrator approach (MAVA). The MAVA is suited for dynamical microscopic description of two-phonon-like states and their energy splitting due to interaction with low-lying one-phonon states. The starting point for the model is a realistic single-particle valence space and a microscopic many-body Hamiltonian which is used to generate the one-phonon states by the use of the quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA). The same Hamiltonian generates also the interaction between the one- and two-phonon states.…
Schematic and realistic model calculations of the isovector spin monopole excitations in 116In
2012
The excitation of Gamow-Teller (GT) and isovector spin monopole (IVSM) Jπ=1+ modes in 116In by (p,n) and (n,p) charge-exchange reactions on 116Cd and on 116Sn, respectively, is studied within the framework of the quasiparticle random-phase approximation. The calculations have been performed both for schematic and realistic model situations. It appears that the calculated admixture of the IVSM and Gamow-Teller (GT) Jπ=1+ excitations is negligible and that the contribution to the strength above 20 MeV of excitation energy, in 116In, is due to the IVSM (σr2t ±) mode. This result is compared with the recent experimental work that reported a large amount of both (p,n) and (n,p) strength beyond 1…
Low energy collective modes of deformed superfluid nuclei within the finite amplitude method
2013
Background: The major challenge for nuclear theory is to describe and predict global properties and collective modes of atomic nuclei. Of particular interest is the response of the nucleus to a time-dependent external field that impacts the low-energy multipole and beta-decay strength. Purpose: We propose a method to compute low-lying collective modes in deformed nuclei within the finite amplitude method (FAM) based on the quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA). By using the analytic property of the response function, we find the QRPA amplitudes by computing the residua of the FAM amplitudes by means of a contour integration around the QRPA poles in a complex frequency plane. Metho…
Low-lying states in near-magic odd-odd nuclei and the effective interaction
2014
The iterative quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA) method we previously developed [Phys. Rev. C 81, 034312 (2010); 86, 024303 (2012); 86, 014307 (2012)] to accurately calculate properties of individual nuclear states is extended so that it can be applied for nuclei with odd numbers of neutrons and protons. The approach is based on the proton-neutron QRPA (pnQRPA) and uses an iterative non-Hermitian Arnoldi diagonalization method where the QRPA matrix does not have to be explicitly calculated and stored. The method is used to calculate excitation energies of proton-neutron multiplets for several nuclei. The influence of a pairing interaction in the T = 0 channel is studied.
