Microscopic Structure of Rotational Damping ∗

چکیده
The damping of collective rotational motion is studied microscopically, making use of shell model calculations based on the cranked Nilsson deformed mean-field and on residual two-body interactions, and focusing on the shape of the gamma-gamma correlation spectra and on its systematic behavior. It is shown that the spectral shape is directly related to the damping width of collective rotation, Γ rot , and to the spreading width of many-particle many-hole configurations, Γ µ. The rotational damping width is affected by the shell structure, and is very sensitive to the position of the Fermi surface, besides mass number, spin and deformation. This produces a rich variety of features in the rotational damping phenomena.

Microscopic origin of quantum chaos in rotational damping.
The rotational spectrum of Yb is calculated diagonalizing different effective interactions within the basis of unperturbed rotational bands provided by the cranked shell model. A transition between order and chaos taking place in the energy region between 1 and 2 MeV above the yrast line is observed, associated with the onset of rotational damping. It can be related to the higher multipole comp...
متن کاملShell Model for Warm Rotating Nuclei
In order to provide a microscopic description of levels and E2 transitions in rapidly rotating nuclei with internal excitation energy up to a few MeV, use is made of a shell model which combines the cranked Nilsson mean-field and the residual surface delta two-body force. The damping of collective rotational motion is investigated in the case of a typical rare-earth nucleus, namely Yb . It is f...
متن کاملProbing the width of compound states with rotational gamma rays
The intrinsic width of (multiparticle-multihole) compound states is an elusive quantity, of difficult direct access, as it is masked by damping mechanisms which control the collective response of nuclei. Through microscopic cranked shell model calculations, it is found that the strength function associated with two-dimensional gamma-coincidence spectra arising from rotational transitions betwee...

The damping widths associated with compound states of rotating deformed nuclei is analyzed by means of the microscopic shell model calculations. Because of the doorway mechanism present in the damped collective rotation, the rotational E2 transitions is characterized by not only the rotational damping width Γrot but also the spreading width Γnpnh of many-particle many-hole shell model states fo...
متن کاملA pr 1 99 6 KUNS 1385 Onset of Rotational Damping in Superdeformed Nuclei
We discuss damping of the collective rotational motion in A ∼ 150 superdeformed nuclei by means of a shell model combining the cranked Nilsson mean-filed and the surface-delta two-body residual force. It is shown that, because of the shell structure associated with the superdeformed mean-field, onset energy of the rotational damping becomes Ex ∼ 2 − 3 MeV above yrast line, which is much higher ...
