New dynamical pair breaking effect

A dynamical pair breaking effect is evidenced at very low excitation energies. For this purpose, a new set of time-dependent coupled channel equations for pair-breaking in superfluid systems are deduced from the variational principle. These equations give the probability to destroy or to create a Cooper pair under the action of some perturbations or when the mean field varies in time. The odd-even effect in fission is investigated within the model as an example. For this purpose, the time-dependent probability to find the system in a seniority-one or in a seniority-two state is restricted in the sense that the perturbations are considered only in the avoided crossing regions.

Time Dependent Pairing Equations for Seniority One Nuclear Systems

When the time dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov intrinsic equations of motion are solved in the case of seniority one nuclear systems, the unpaired nucleon remains on the same orbital. The blocking effect hinders the possibility to skip from one orbital to another. This unpleasant feature is by-passed with a new set of pairing time dependent equations that allows the possibility that the unpaired nucleon changes its single-particle level. These equations generalize the time dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov equations of motion by including the Landau-Zener effect. The derivation of these new equations is presented in details. These equations are applied in the case of a superasymmetric fission process, that is, in order to explain the fine structure the 14C emission from 233Ra. A new version of the Woods-Saxon model extended for two-center potentials is used in this context.

Synthesis of superheavy elements beyond Z=118

We investigate the cold fission/fusion paths of superheavy nuclei within the two center shell model, in order to find the best projectile-target combinations of their production. The fission/fusion yields are estimated by using the semiclassical approach. We predict several asymmetric combinations of relative long living fragments, which can be used in fusion experiments of superheavy nuclei with Z>118.

Threshold Resonant Structure of the 232Th Neutron-Induced Fission Cross Section

The structures observed in the sub-threshold neutron-induced fission of ^{232}Th were investigated employing a recent developed model. Theoretical single-particle excitations of a phenomenological two-humped barrier are determined by solving a system of coupled differential equations for the motion along the optimal fission path. A rather good agreement with experimental data was obtained using a small number of independent parameters. It is predicted that the structure at 1.4 and 1.6 MeV is mainly dominated by spin 3/2 partial cross-section with small admixture of spin 1/2, while the structure at 1.7 MeV is given by a large partial cross section of spin 5/2.

Fine structure of the 0.7 MeV resonance in the 230Th neutron--induced cross section

The fine structure of the 0.7 MeV resonance in the 230Th neutron-induced cross section is investigated within the hybrid model. A very good agreement with experimental data is obtained. It is suggested that fine structure of the cross section quantify the changes of the intrinsic states of the nucleus during the disintegration process.

Landau-Zener effect in superfluid nuclear systems

The Landau--Zener effect is generalized for many-body systems with pairing residual interactions. The microscopic equations of motion are obtained and the $^{14}$C decay of $^{223}$Ra spectroscopic factors are deduced. An asymmetric nuclear shape parametrization given by two intersected spheres is used. The single particle level scheme is determined in the frame of the superasymmetric two-center shell. The deformation energy is computed in the microscopic-macroscopic approximation. The penetrabilities are obtained within the WKB approximation. The fine structure of the cluster decay analyzed in the frame of this formalism gives a very good agreement with the experimental ratio of partial half-lives obtained in special conditions

Fine structure of alpha decay in odd nuclei

Using an alpha decay level scheme, an explanation for the fine structure in odd nuclei is evidenced by taking into account the radial and rotational couplings between the unpaired nucleon and the core of the decaying system. It is stated that the experimental behavior of the alpha decay fine structure phenomenon is directed by the dynamical characteristics of the system.
