چکیده
The value of an isomeric ratio (IR) in N=81 isotones (137Ba, 139Ce, 141Nd and 143Sm) is studied by means of the (γ, n) reaction. This quantity measures a probability to populate the isomeric state in respect to the ground state population. In (γ, n) reactions, the giant dipole resonance (GDR) is excited and after its decay by a neutron emission, the nucleus has an excitation energy of a few MeV. The forthcoming γ decay by direct or cascade transitions deexcites the nucleus into an isomeric or ground state. It has been observed experimentally that the IR for 137Ba and 139Ce equals about 0.13 while in two heavier isotones it is even less than half the size. To explain this effect, the structure of the excited states in the energy region up to 6.5 MeV has been calculated within the Quasiparticle Phonon Model. Many states are found connected to the ground and isomeric states by E1, E2 and M1 transitions. The single-particle component of the wave function is responsible for the large values of the transitions. The calculated value of the isomeric ratio is in very good agreement with the experimental data for all isotones. A slightly different value of maximum energy with which the nuclei rest after neutron decay of the GDR is responsible for the reported effect of the A-dependence

We construct a three-dimensional analytically soluble model of the nonlinear effects in Coulomb excitation of multiphonon Giant Dipole Resonances (GDR) based on the SU(2,1) algebra. The full 3-dimensional model predicts further enhancement of the Double GDR (DGDR) cross sections at high bombarding energies. Enhancement factors for DGDR measured in thirteen different processes with various proje...

The electromagnetic excitation of the two-phonon isovector giant dipole resonance in relativistic projectiles incident on heavy targets can be proceed via several intermediate 1 − one-phonon giant resonance states. In two step electric dipole transitions the population of 0 + , 1 + , and 2 + two-phonon states are possible. We calculate the amplitude distribution of 1 − excitations with an RPA f...

The double-dipole strength distribution in 40 Ca is calculated microscopically within a model space of 1p1h-and 2p2h excitations. Anharmonic effects in the centroid energies of the 0 +-and 2 + components are found to be small, in agreement with experimental observation. Firm conclusions about the spreading width cannot be drawn, as yet, due to computational limitations in the number of 2p2h sta...
