Excitation of Pygmy Dipole Resonance in neutron-rich nuclei via Coulomb and nuclear fields

We study the nature of the low-lying dipole strength in neutron-rich nuclei, often associated to the Pygmy Dipole Resonance. The states are described within the Hartree-Fock plus RPA formalism, using different parametrizations of the Skyrme interaction. We show how the information from combined reactions processes involving the Coulomb and different mixtures of isoscalar and isovector nuclear interactions can provide a clue to reveal the characteristic features of these states.

Configuration interaction study of single and double dipole plasmon excitations in Na_8

We carry out a microscopic analysis of the ground and excited states of the Na_8 metal cluster within the jellium model. We perform a series of configuration interaction calculations on a Hartree-Fock basis and construct eigenstates of the Hamiltonian which carry up to 4-particle 4-hole components. Based on the analysis of the dipole transition strengths, we single out those states which can be interpreted as the collective dipole plasmon and its double excitations. These modes are found to possess a high degree of harmonicity, deviations from the harmonic limit remaining, however, of the order of 10%.
