Nuclear Level Density with Non-zero Angular Momentum

The statistical properties of interacting fermions have been studied for various angular momentum with the inclusion of pairing interaction. The dependence of the critical temperature on angular momentum for several nuclei,have been studied. The yrast energy as a function of angular momentum for 28 Si and 24Mg nuclei have been calculated up to 60.0 MeV of excitation energy. The computed limiting angular momenta are compared with the experimental results for 26Al produced by 12C 14N reaction. The relevant nuclear level densities for non-zero angular momentum have been computed for 44Ti and l36Ba nuclei. The results are compared with their corresponding values obtained from the approximateformulas.

Calculation of Neutron Resonance Spacing with Microscopic Theory

Nuclear level spacings calculated with a microscopic theory are compared with spacings determined fromneutron resonance experiment. The gross features of the experimental data due to nuclear shells are reproduced with themicroscopic theory. The experimental data for nuclei with statistically deformed nuclei have also been tested with leveldensity formula including low energy rotational levels. The experimental data for the actinide nuclei and the lanthanidenuclei are found to be consistent with the theory which includes collective rotational levels.     

Baryon number violating nuclear decay

The expressions for baryon number violating nuclear partial decay widths are derived from the interactions as predicted by grand unified theories. Theory predicts that the baryon number violating proton decay inside the nucleus is hindered relative to the free proton decay rate. In the case of closed shell nuclei, the meson spin-isospin dependence of the partial width is the same as that for the nucleon decay. The branching ratios of decay amplitudes depend on the nuclear binding energies. Nuclear structure introduces lepton energy spread of ±49.5 MeV for light closed shell nuclei, while it does not affect the back to back emission of lepton-meson pair.     

Analysis of fissionability data at high excitation energies

A level density formula that takes into account the smoothed volume, surface and curvature dependence of the single particle level density at the Fermi surface using the results of Balian and Bloch, is shown to be compatible with the level spacings found in neutron resonance data if complemented by a simple Ansatz for shell effects (due to Ignatyuk) and pairing effects. The three parameters involved, a scaling parameter, a shell damping energy and a pairing energy shift are compatible, respectively, with known nuclear radii, microscopic level density calculations and odd-even mass fluctuations. At excitation energies on the order of the neutron binding energy no evidence for an absolute level density problem or a different behaviour of level densities (collective contributions) for deformed nuclei as opposed to spherical nuclei is found. The proposed level density formula allows to calculate a priori macroscopic ratios of level densities, e.g. at the groundstate and at the saddle point, removing this important parameter from the analysis of fissionability data. As a first application, the fissionability of a number of actinide nuclei at excitation energies a few MeV above the fission barrier is analysed.     

逆运动学弹性共振散射方法在非束缚核结构研究中的应用

简要介绍了近几年发展起来的厚靶逆运动学弹性共振散射方法在非稳定核结构测量中的应用。它是研究非束缚态核结构的实验方法之一。通过测量反冲轻核的激发函数，提取共振态的能量、自旋宇称和衰变宽度等。主要用于研究非稳定核素的结构、核天体物理中相关核的阈能共振态的能级参数测量等。The method of elastic resonance scattering in inverse kinematics, which was progressed in recent years, is briefly introduced. It is a novel experimental technique to perform meaningful experiments under conditions of the very short-lived nuclides and the beam intensities only 1 000 atoms/s. The excitation function of recoil proton has been measured in experiment; the shape of proton energy spectrum can be also used to uniquely deter- mine the energy of resonant states, spin-parity, partial decay width and spectroscopic factors of the states. This method is mainly used in the investigation of unstable nuclei and the level parameters measurement of near threshold resonant state of the nuclear astrophysics related nuclei.     

Ground State Structure of Hs Super-heavy Isotopes

The ground state properties of Hs nuclei studied in the framework of the relativistic mean field theory revealed that more stable isotopes are located on the proton abundant side of the chain.The last stable nucleus to the proton drip line is ~(256)Hs.The most stable unknown Hs nucleus may be ~(268)Hs.The density dependent delta interaction pairing is used to improve the BCS pairing correction,which results in more reasonable single-particle energy level distributions and nucleon occupation,and it is shown to be available to describe the properties of nuclei in the superheavy region.

The Role of One Single Lambda Hyperon on Binding Energy Difference of Hypernuclear Mirror Pair

Investigation on isospin symmetry in light Lambda hypernuclei is one of the most important issues in hypernuclear physics. In order to know the influences introduced by a single Lambda hyperon, we study the binding energy difference of mirror hypernuclear pair with mass A=16, 18, 28, 40, and 42 using a time-odd triaxial relativistic mean field theory. Effects as the spin-orbit interaction, the time-odd component of vector fields, the core polarization, the proton-neutron mass difference, and the center-of-mass energy correction are self-consistently considered. Compared to the reported results of ordinary nuclei, the binding energy difference of mirror hypernuclei shows trivial change. With core polarization modified by an impurity hyperon, the isospin nonconserving effect between proton and neutron is hardly reduced for nuclei in study.     

Precise measurement of magnetic moment of short-lived β-emitting nuclei 12B (Iπ= 1+, T1/2 = 20.18 ms)

The spin polarized β-emitting nuclei 12B (Iπ = 1+, T1/2 = 20.18 ms) were produced by the nuclear reaction 11B(d, p) 12B and by the selection technique of the incident deuteron energy and the 12B recoil angle following the nuclear reaction. The nuclear magnetic moment of the short-lived nuclei 12B was measured by β-NMR with the β-NMR and β-NQR setup established for the first time in China. The nuclear magnetic moment of 12B was determined to be μ = 0.99993 ± 0.00048 nm or g = 0.99993 ± 0.00048 after the precise correction of the Knight shift.

Microscopic insight into the quasi-particle structure of odd-mass terbium isotopes

The present work has been focussed on the application of Projected Shell Model to study the negative parity rotational band structure up to the high spin states of the neutron-rich odd mass Terbium isotopes with neutron numbers ranging from 90 to 98. The structure evolution in these nuclei has been made on the basis of various nuclear structure properties like energy spectra, transition energies, wave functions and electromagnetic transition probabilities (B(E2) and B(M1)). Besides, the occurrence of back bending has also been reported in the present work.     

Nuclear Level Density and Thermodynamic Functions for Nuclei with Static Deformation

The level densities of even-odd and even-even isotopes^161,162Dy,^166Er and ^171,172Yb were calculated using microscopic theory of interacting fermions and compared with experiments.It is found that the data can be well reproduced with level density formalism for nuclei with static deformation.The nuclear temperature as well as the reproduced with level density formalism for nuclei with static deformation.The nuclear temperature as well as the entropy of nuclear system as a function of excitation energy has been extracted from the BCS theory.It is shown that the entropy exhibits an S-formed shape as a function of excitation energy.This is interpreted as a phase transition.Procedure of treating the even-odd and even-even nuclear systems has been presented and discussed.

Quasi-exactly solvable decatic model description of nuclei near the X(5) critical point

The Bohr Hamiltonian with axially deformed shape confined in a quasi-exactly solvable decatic β-part potential is studied.It is shown that the decatic model can well reproduce the X(5)model results as far as the energy ratios in the ground and beta band and related B(E2)values are concerned.Fitting results to the low-lying energy ratios and relevant B(E2)values of even-even X(5)candidates ¹⁵⁰Nd,¹⁵⁶Dy,¹⁶⁴Yb,¹⁶⁸Hf,¹⁷⁴Yb,^176,178,180Os,and ^188,190Os show that the decatic model provides the best fitting results for the energy ratios,while the X(5)model is the best at reproducing the B(E2)values of these nuclei,in which the beta-bandhead energy is lower than that of the gamma band.While for even-even nuclei,such as ^154,156,158Gd,with bandhead energies of the beta and gamma bands more or less equal within the X(5)critical point to the axially deformed region,our numerical analysis indicates that the decatic model is better than the X(5)model in describing both the low-lying level energies and related B(E2)values.

Heavy ion induced charge exchange reactions: A preliminary study within the Constrained Molecular Dynamics model

We present a preliminary study of charge exchange heavy ion induced reactions based on the constrained molecular dynamics(CoMD) model.The purpose is to test the capability of the model in predicting the occurrence of single charge exchange(SCE) and double charge exchange(DCE) exit channels for three different entrance channels at the same laboratory incident energy.The nuclear reaction dynamics and nuclear interaction within the CoMD approach are the only ingredients that have given,at this stage,promising results for SCE and DCE cross section calculations.The obtained results suggest an upgrade and possible future employment of the model for studies relating to the production of exotic nuclei through charge exchange reactions or DCE reactions and their connection with neutrinoless double beta decay.     

Nuclear structure studies at Saha Institute of Nuclear Pysics using gamma detector arrays

In-beam gamma-ray spectroscopy, carried out at the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics in the recent past, using heavy-ion projectiles from the pelletron accelerator centres in the country and multi-detector arrays have yielded significant data on the structure of a large number of nuclei spanning different mass regions. The experiments included the study of two-fold γγ-coincidence events for establishing decay schemes, directional correlation of oriented nuclei (DCO) for help in spin assignments and Doppler shift attenuation for lifetime information. The studies have led to the observation of rotational sequences of states in nuclei near closed shell in the mass A=110 region, vibrational spectra in nuclei with A ∼ 60, interplay between single-particle and collective modes of excitation in the doubly-odd bromine isotopes, decoupled bands with large quadrupole deformation in ⁷⁷Br, shape transition with rotational frequency within a band in ¹³⁵Pm and octupole collectivity in ¹⁵³Eu. Particle-rotor-model and cranked-shell-model calculations have been carried out to provide an understanding of the underlying nuclear structure.     

The spin-isospin decomposition of the nuclear symmetry energy from low to high density

The energy per particle BA in nuclear matter is calculated up to high baryon density in the whole isospin asymmetry range from symmetric matter to pure neutron matter.The results,obtained in the framework of the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approximation with two-and three-body forces,confirm the well-known parabolic dependence on the asymmetry parameterβ=(N?Z)/A(β^2 law)that is valid in a wide density range.To investigate the extent to which this behavior can be traced back to the properties of the underlying interaction,aside from the mean field approximation,the spin-isospin decomposition of BA is performed.Theoretical indications suggest that theβ^2 law could be violated at higher densities as a consequence of the three-body forces.This raises the problem that the symmetry energy,calculated according to theβ^2 law as a difference between BA in pure neutron matter and symmetric nuclear matter,cannot be applied to neutron stars.One should return to the proper definition of the nuclear symmetry energy as a response of the nuclear system to small isospin imbalance from the Z=N nuclei and pure neutron matter.
