Nuclear pairing gap: how low can it go?

چکیده

The pairing gap for 53Ca obtained from new experimental data on the masses of (52-54)Ca has the smallest value yet observed. This is explained in the framework of the nuclear shell model with schematic and realistic Hamiltonians as being due to shell gaps around the low-j orbital 1p(1/2). Minima in the pairing gaps for all nuclei are shown and discussed.

پارامتر نظم ابررسانایی در فلز CeIrIn5

To understand the mechanism of superconductivity in unconventional super onductors is one of the big challenges in the field of superconductivity. Based on the BCS theory, there is a direct relation between the pairing mechanism and the symmetry of the order parameter. Therefore, identification of the structure of the superconducting gap or the order parameter provides key information on the pa...

FISSION FRAGMENT ANGULAR ANISOTROPIES AND INERTIA PARAMETERS

An analysis of selected fission fragment angular distributions from helium-ion induced fission is made using an exact theoretical expression. Theoretical anisotropies obtained with the transition state model are compared with their corresponding values deduced from the statistical scission model. The nuclear moment of inertia extracted from the model calculations are compared with their est...

Dependence of the BCS 1 S 0 superfluid pairing gap on nuclear interactions

We study in detail the dependence of the S0 superfluid pairing gap on nuclear interactions and on charge-independence breaking at the BCS level. Starting from chiral effective-field theory and conventional nucleon-nucleon (NN) interactions, we use the renormalization group to generate low-momentum interactions Vlow k with sharp and smooth regulators. The resulting BCS gaps are well constrained ...

Pairing effects in low density domain of nuclear matter

Using equations, governing np pairing correlations in S = 1, T = 0 pairing channel (PRC 63 (2001) 021304(R)), it is shown that at low densities equations for the energy gap in the spectrum of quasiparticles and chemical potentials of protons and neutrons allow solutions with negative chemical potential. This corresponds to appearance of Bose– Einstein condensate (BEC) of deuterons in low densit...

Screening Effects in Superfluid Nuclear and Neutron Matter within Brueckner Theory

Effects of medium polarization are studied for 1S0 pairing in neutron and nuclear matter. The screening potential is calculated in the RPA limit, suitably renormalized to cure the low density mechanical instability of nuclear matter. The selfenergy corrections are consistently included resulting in a strong depletion of the Fermi surface. All medium effects are calculated based on the Brueckner...
