Low - lying dipole strength in 20
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two 1− levels at 5.35(10) and 6.85(5) MeV were observed for the first time in 20O. The strong direct excitation and subsequent γ -ray decay of these states in virtual photon scattering at 100 MeV/nucleon, along with B(Eλ) predictions for 20O states in this energy region, established their dipole character. The extracted B(E1)↑ values of 0.062(16) e2 fm2 and 0.035(9) e2 fm2 for the 5.35 and 6.85 MeV states, respectively, are significantly larger than shell model calculations predict. Such large dipole strengths are not observed for low-lying 1− states in 18O, indicating a shift of dipole strength towards lower energies as one approaches the neutron drip-line. 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

Low-lying dipole response in the relativistic quasiparticle time blocking approximation and its influence on neutron capture cross sections
We have computed dipole strength distributions for nickel and tin isotopes within the Relativistic Quasiparticle Time Blocking approximation (RQTBA). These calculations provide a good description of data, including the neutron-rich tin isotopes 130,132Sn. The resulting dipole strengths have been implemented in HauserFeshbach calculations of astrophysical neutron capture rates relevant for r-pro...

The relativistic quasiparticle time blocking approximation (RQTBA), developed recently as a consistent combination of the covariant energy density functional theory (CEDFT) and the modern extensions of the Landau– Migdal theory of finite fermi systems, is reviewed in Ref. [1]. In the RQTBA, starting from the covariant energy functional, phonon energies and their vertices are calculated without ...
متن کاملEffects of Contact Interactions in Molecular Bose-Einstein Condensates
We investigate the ground state and low-lying excitations of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of dipolar molecules interacting via short-range contact and long-range dipole-dipole interactions (ddi). We find the mean field ground state via the variational principle using a separable bosonic wave function as the variational state. This state can be refined to include small excitations in the for...
متن کاملDirect Reactions with Exotic Nuclei , Nuclear Structure and Astrophysics
Intermediate energy Coulomb excitation and dissociation is a useful tool for nuclear structure and astrophysics studies. Low-lying strength in nuclei far from stability was discovered by this method. The effective range theory for low-lying strength in one-neutron halo nuclei is summarized and extended to two-neutron halo nuclei. This is of special interest in view of recent rather accurate exp...
