Continuum QRPA response for deformed neutron-rich nuclei

Nuclear Theory 2015-06-26 v1

Abstract

We discuss properties of the quadrupole collective excitation of the deformed neutron-rich nucleus 38^{38}Mg within the framework of quasi-particle random phase approximation (QRPA). We first solve the coupled-channels equations to obtain the single-particle levels, and construct the ground state by treating the pairing correlations in the BCS approximation. We then solve the QRPA equation using the response function formalism, by including the continuum spectra with the box dicscretization method. We show that the collectivity of the gamma vibration (the lowest Kπ=2+K^\pi=2^+ mode) is significantly enhanced if protons and neutrons have different deformations. We also discuss an attempt towards full continuum QRPA calculations for deformed nuclei.
