Isospin mixing of isospin-projected Slater determinants: formalism and preliminary applications

نویسنده

چکیده

We report on the development of a new theoretical tool that allows for isospin projection of Slater determinants and we present its first applications. In particular, we determine the isospin mixing in ground states of N = Z nuclei and discuss its dependence on the size of the harmonic-oscillator basis used in the calculations. We also discuss the unphysical contribution to the isospin mixing caused by the spurious isospin-symmetry breaking inherent to the mean-field approach. We show that these contributions may be as large as 30% of the value of the isospin-mixing parameter.

Restoration of Isospin Symmetry in Highly Excited Nuclei

Explicit relations between the isospin mixing probability, the spreading width Γ↓IAS of the Isobaric Analog State (IAS) and the statistical decay width Γc of the compound nucleus at finite excitation energy, are derived by using the Feshbach projection formalism. The temperature dependence of the isospin mixing probability is discussed quantitatively for the first time by using the values of Γ↓...

Hypercentral Constituent Quark Model and Isospin for the Baryon Static Properties

So far the static properties of hadrons have been introduced in various models. The static properties of hadrons (charge radius, magnetic moment, etc.) are useful for understanding the quark structure of hadron. In this work we have introduced the hypercentral constituent quark and isospin dependent potentials. Here constituent quarks interact with each other via a potential in which we have ta...

Mixing of Pseudoscalar Mesons and Isospin Symmetry Breaking

Mixing of the pseudoscalar mesons is discussed in the quark-flavor basis with the hypothesis that the basis decay constants follow the pattern of particle state mixing. The divergences of the axial vector currents which embody the axial vector anomaly, combined with this hypothesis provide a calculational scheme for the parameters describing the mixing of the π, η and η mesons. Phenomenological...

Isospin mixing in nuclei within the nuclear density functional theory.

We present the self-consistent, nonperturbative analysis of isospin mixing using the nuclear density functional approach and the rediagonalization of the Coulomb interaction in the good-isospin basis. The unphysical isospin violation on the mean-field level, caused by the neutron excess, is eliminated by the proposed method. We find a significant dependence of the magnitude of isospin breaking ...

Effects of isospin mixing in the A = 32 quintet

For the A = 32, T = 2 quintet we provide a unified theoretical description for three related aspects of isospin mixing: the necessity of more than three terms in the isobaric mass multiplet equation, isospin-forbidden proton decay in 32Cl, and a correction to the allowed Fermi β+ decay of 32Ar. We demonstrate that all three effects observed in experiment can be traced to a common origin related...
