Semi-microscopic description of the backbending phenomena in some deformed even-even nuclei

The mechanism of backbending is semi-phenomenologically investigated based on the hybridization of two rotational bands. These bands are defined by treating a model Hamiltonian describing two interacting subsystems: a set of particles moving in a deformed mean field and interacting among themselves through an effective pairing force and a phenomenological deformed core whose intrinsic ground state is an axially symmetric coherent boson state. The two components interact with each other by a quadrupole-quadrupole and a spin-spin interaction. The total Hamiltonian is considered in the space of states with good angular momentum, projected from a quadrupole deformed product function. The single-particle factor function defines the nature of the rotational bands, one corresponding to the ground band in which all particles are paired and another one built upon a $i_{13/2}$ neutron broken pair. The formalism is applied to six deformed even-even nuclei, known as being good backbenders. Agreement between theory and experiment is fairly good.

Sum rule for a Schiff-like dipole moment

The energy-weighted sum rule for an electric dipole transition operator of a Schiff type differs from the Thomas-Reiche-Kuhn sum rule by several corrective terms which depend on the number of system components, ${\cal N}$. The deviations are evaluated by two distinct approaches. One of them is based on the charge density expansion around an uniform distribution and provides an analytical ${\cal N}$ dependence for the sum rule while, the other one hinges of the RPA approach and yields compact expressions for corrections as function of the RPA amplitudes. Although the formalism might be considered for any many body system, we applied it for illustration, to the case of $Na$ clusters. One concludes that the RPA results for $Na$ clusters obey the modified TRK sum rule.

Collective dipole excitations in sodium clusters

Some properties of small and medium sodium clusters are described within the RPA approach using a projected spherical single particle basis. The oscillator strengths calculated with a Schiff-like dipole transition operator and folded with Lorentzian functions are used to calculate the photoabsorbtion cross section spectra. The results are further employed to establish the dependence of the plasmon frequency on the number of cluster components. Static electric polarizabilities of the clusters excited in a RPA dipole state are also calculated. Comparison of our results with the corresponding experimental data show an overall good agreement.

Analytical description of the Coherent State Model for near vibrational and well deformed nuclei

Analytical formulas for the excitation energies as well as for the electric quadrupole reduced transition probabilities in the ground, beta and gamma bands were derived within the coherent state model for the near vibrational and well deformed nuclei. Numerical calculations were performed for 42 nuclei exhibiting various symmetries and therefore with specific properties. Comparison of the calculation results with the corresponding experimental data shows a good agreement. The parameters involved in the proposed model satisfy evident regularities being interpolated by smooth curves. Few of them, which fall out of the curves, are interpreted as signatures for a critical point in a specific phase transition. This is actually supported also by the figures showing the excitation energy dependence on the angular momentum. The formulas provided for energies and B(E2) values are very simple, being written in a compact form, and therefore easy to be handled to explain the new experimental data.

Semiclassical features of rotational ground bands

A time dependent variational principle is used to dequantize a second order quadrupole boson Hamiltonian. The classical equations for the generalized coordinate and the constraint for angular momentum are quantized and then analytically solved. A generalized Holmberg-Lipas formula for energies is obtained. A similar $J(J+1)$ dependence is provided by the coherent state model (CSM) in the large deformation regime, by using an expansion in powers of $1/x$ for energies, with $x$ denoting a deformation parameter squared. A simple compact expression is also possible for the near vibrational regime. These three expressions have been used for 44 nuclei covering regions characterized by different dynamic symmetries or in other words belonging to the all known nuclear phases. Nuclei satisfying the specific symmetries of the critical point in the phase transitions $O(6)\to SU(3)$, $SU(5)\to SU(3)$ have been also considered. The agreement between the results and the corresponding experimental data is very good. This is reflected in very small r.m.s. values of deviations.
