On microscopic description of the gamma-ray strength functions S. Kamerdzhiev, D. Voitenkov Institute of Physics and Power Engineering, Obninsk, Russia September 17-20, EMIN
Motivation -decay photoabsorption 1. PSF describes energy distribution of photon emission between “highly-excited” states Main restrictions: Energies below 10 MeV Low spins PDR 2
2. At present there are huge number of experimental data for the transition between excited states and moment values in the excited states. Our direct aim: to understand what gives the modern microscopic many-body theory in this field and to compare with the standard QRPA. The microscopic description is important for neutron-rich nuclei, where phenomenological approaches are questionable 3
Extended Theory of Finite Fermi Systems (ETFFS) 1. J. Speth, E. Werner, W. Wild, Phys. Rep. 33 (1977) 127 – S. Kamerdzhiev, J. Speth, G. Tertychny, Phys. Rep. 393 (2004) 1– 86. [1], [2] are going beyond the standard RPA and QRPA, namely: Ref. [1] describes transitions between excited states and moment values in excited states. Ref. [2] accounts for the quasiparticle-phonon coupling and more complex configurations than (Q)RPA ones. 4
Magic nuclei + The case of moment in the excited state corresponds to S=S’, ω= S S’ S P. Ring, J. Speth, Nucl. Phys. A235 (1974) 315 – 351 J. Speth, Z. Phys. 239 (1970) V V V and g s are calculated within the RPA
New physics: 1. RPAETFFS 2. Ground state correlations (GSC) in the integral (not in the g s !) “backward going graphs ” 6
