Comparative analyses of the nuclear matrix elements (NMEs) related to the 0νβ+β+ decay of 106Cd to the ground state of 106Pd and the ordinary muon capture (OMC) in 106Cd are performed. This is the first time the OMC NMEs are studied for a nucleus decaying via positron-emitting/electron-capture modes of double beta decay. All the present calculations are based on the proton-neutron quasiparticle random-phase approximation with large no-core single-particle bases and realistic two-nucleon interactions. The effect of the particle-particle interaction parameter gpp of pnQRPA on the NMEs is discussed. In the case of the OMC, the effect of different bound-muon wave functions is studied.

Spectroscopy of the neutron-rich hypernucleusHeΛ7from electron scattering

2016

The missing mass spectroscopy of the HeΛ7 hypernucleus was performed using the Li7(e, e ′K+)HeΛ7 reaction at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility Hall C. The Λ- binding energy of the ground-state (1/2+) was determined with a smaller error than that of the previous measurement, being BΛ=5.55±0.10stat.±0.11sys.MeV. The experiment also provided new insight into charge symmetry breaking in p-shell hypernuclear systems. Finally, a peak at BΛ=3.65±0.20stat. ±0.11sys.MeV was observed and assigned as a mixture of 3/2+ and 5/2+ states, confirming the "gluelike" behavior of Λ, which makes an unstable state in He6 stable against neutron emission.

Fourier-transform spectroscopy, relativistic electronic structure calculation, and coupled-channel deperturbation analysis of the fully mixed A1Σu+ a…

2019

The 4503 rovibronic term values belonging to the mutually perturbed $A^1\Sigma^+_u$ and $b^3\Pi_u$ states of Cs$_2$ were extracted from laser induced fluorescence (LIF) $A\sim b\rightarrow X^1\Sigma^+_g$ Fourier transform spectra with the 0.01 cm$^{-1}$ uncertainty. The experimental term values of the $A^1\Sigma^+_u\sim b^3\Pi_u$ complex covering the rotational levels $J\in [4,395]$ in the excitation energy range $[9655,13630]$ cm$^{-1}$ were involved into coupled-channel (CC) deperturbation analysis. The deperturbation model takes explicitly into account spin-orbit coupling of the $A^1\Sigma^+_u(A0^+_u)$ and $b^3\Pi^+_{0_u}(b0^+_u)$ states as well as spin-rotational interaction between the…

Spatial multifractal properties of wave packets in the Anderson model of localization.

1993

The multifractal properties of electronic wave functions in disordered samples are investigated. In a given energy range all eigenstates are determined for the same disorder configuration in the Anderson model of localization. It is shown that the singularity spectrum and the generalized dimensions change only slowly with energy, aside from statistical fluctuations. More important, the wave packet constructed by linear combination of the eigenstates shows quantitatively the same multifractal properties. Consequences for the transport properties of electronic states in disordered systems are discussed.

Magnetic field dependence of quantum dot ground states

2008

We study the ground states of a planar quantum dot with N = 5,6,7 electrons, in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field. Using a spatially unrestricted Hartree Fock technique followed by spin and angular momentum symmetry restoration, chemical potentials are calculated and transitions between different ground states are identified. A spin blockade in the 6 -> 7 transition is found. The structure of the quantum dot wave functions is illustrated by their electron densities. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Solution of the Skyrme–Hartree–Fock–Bogolyubov equations in the Cartesian deformed harmonic-oscillator basis.

2012

We describe the new version (v2.38j) of the code hfodd which solves the nuclear SkyrmeHartree-Fock or Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov problem by using the Cartesian deformed harmonic-oscillator basis. In the new version, we have implemented: (i) projection on good angular momentum (for the Hartree-Fock states), (ii) calculation of the GCM kernels, (iii) calculation of matrix elements of the Yukawa interaction, (iv) the BCS solutions for statedependent pairing gaps, (v) the HFB solutions for broken simplex symmetry, (vi) calculation of Bohr deformation parameters, (vii) constraints on the Schiff moments and scalar multipole moments, (viii) the D T transformations and rotations of wave functio…

Line shape and D(*)D¯(*) probabilities of ψ(3770) from the e+e−→DD¯ reaction

2019

We have performed a calculation of the DD¯, DD¯*, D*D¯, D*D¯* components in the wave function of the ψ(3770). For this we make use of the P03 model to find the coupling of ψ(3770) to these components, that with an elaborate angular momentum algebra can be obtained with only one parameter. Then we use data for the e+e-→DD¯ reaction, from where we determine a form factor needed in the theoretical framework, as well as other parameters needed to evaluate the meson-meson self-energy of the ψ(3770). Once this is done we determine the Z probability to still have a vector core and the probability to have the different meson components. We find Z about 80%–85%, and the individual meson-meson compon…

Occupation Number Representation

2007

The first two chapters of this book presented angular momentum algebra as the basic tool of nuclear theory. That includes angular momentum coupling coefficients, spherical tensor operators and reduced matrix elements. In the preceding chapter we introduced the mean-field concept, along with associated many-nucleon wave functions, Slater determinants, describing configurations of non-interacting particles in mean-field single-particle orbitals.

The Cotton-Mouton effect of Neon and Argon: a benchmark study using highly correlated coupled cluster wave functions

2004

The Cotton-Mouton effect (magnetic field induced linear birefringence) has been studied for neon and argon using state-of-the-art coupled cluster techniques. The coupled cluster singles, doubles and triples (CCSDT) approach has been used to obtain static benchmark results and the CC3 model with an approximate treatment of triple excitations to obtain frequency-dependent results. In the case of neon the effect of excitations beyond triples has also been estimated via coupled cluster calculations including quadruple excitations (CCSDTQ), pentuple excitations (CCSDTQP), etc. up to the full configuration-interaction level. The results obtained for the anisotropy of the hypermagnetizability Delt…

Quantum Effects in Charged Particle Traps

2009

It is a fundamental feature of quantum mechanics that a group of particles can be in a state described by one common wavefunction which cannot be factored into individual particle wavefunctions; they are then said to be in an entangled state [294-296]. A measurement of the state of a constituent part of the entangled system determines the state of all the others. In a system that is not entangled, the states of the individual particles are determined independently. Ions isolated and trapped in vacuo in electromagnetic fields provide an unparalleled means of realizing long-lived entangled quantum states [297] through the coupling of the normal modes of oscillation in the trap by the long ran…
