Counting pairs in $^{44}$Ti with various interactions

Abstract

We count the number of pairs in the single jj-shell model of 44^{44}Ti for various interactions. For a state of total angular momentum II, the wave function can be written as Ψ=JPJND(JPJN)[(j2)JP(j2)JN]I\Psi=\sum_{J_P J_N} D(J_P J_N) [(j^2)_{J_P}(j^2)_{J_N}]_I, where D(JPJN)D(J_P J_N) is the probability amplitude that the protons couple to JPJ_P and the neutrons to JNJ_N. For I=0 there are three states with (I=0,T=0I=0, T=0) and one with (I=0,T=2I=0, T=2). The latter is the double analog of 44^{44}Ca. In that case (T=2), the magnitude of D(JJ)D(JJ) is the same as that of a corresponding two particle fractional parentage coefficient. In counting the number of pairs with an even angular momentum JAJ_A we find a new relationship obtained by diagonalizing a unitary nine-j symbol. We are also able to get results for the 'no-interaction' case for T=0 states, for which it is found that there are less (J=1,T=0J=1, T=0) pairs than on the average. Relative to this 'no-interaction case' we find for the most realistic interaction used that there is an enhancement of pairs with angular momentum JA=0,2,1J_A=0,2,1 and 7, and a depletion for the others. Also considered are interactions in which only the (J=0,T=1J=0, T=1) pair state is at lower energy, only the (J=1,T=0J=1, T=0) pair state is lowered and where both are equally lowered.
