Abstract: | The threshold condition for pionic instabilities in finite nuclei is investigated by evaluating the response function for pion-like nuclear excitations (i.e. isovectorJ π =0?, 1+, 2?, ... excitations). The onset of pion condensation is then defined as the point where the response function for givenJ π becomes infinite at frequencyω=0. Using a momentum space representation for the response function which allows to establish clear connections to the nuclear matter case, we find that for angular momentaJ smaller than a maximum value which depends on the size of the nucleus, the threshold condition is almost the same as for infinite matter. We also study the systematics of this phenomenon as a function of nuclear mass number. |
