We construct the Gamow Golden Rule of multichannel scattering, and use it to obtain the decay distributions, the partial decay constants, the partial decay widths, and the branching fractions of a resonance that has several decay modes. We exemplify the results using two coupled-channel square well potentials.
Pairing plays a central role in nuclear systems. The simplest model for the pairing is the constant-pairing Hamiltonian. The aim of the present paper is to include the continuum single particle level density in the constant pairing Hamiltonian and to make a comparison between the approximate BCS and the exact Richardson solutions. The continuum is introduced by using the continuum single particle level density. It is shown that the continuum makes an important contribution to the pairing parameter even in those case when the continuum is weakly populated. It is shown that while the approximate BCS solution depends on the model space the exact Richardson solution does not.
