Abstract

We have investigated the Gamow-Teller transitions from 22Ne{}^{22}\textrm{Ne} to 22Na{}^{22}\textrm{Na} by applying the isospin projected antisymmetrized molecular dynamics combined with generator coordinate method. We have found that the GT strength from AZ(JπT)=22Ne(01+1)^AZ(J^\pi T)={}^{22}\textrm{Ne}(0_1^+1) is fragmented into two final states 22Na(11,2+0){}^{22}\textrm{Na}(1_{1,2}^+0), which belong to K=0K=0 and K=1K=1 bands constructed by a prolately deformed 20^{20}Ne core with a S=1S=1 proton-neutron (pnpn) pair. Coupling of the intrinsic-spin of the pnpn pair with the core deformation play an important role in the GT fragmentation. The symmetry breaking in the intrinsic-spin rotation leads to the SU(4)SU(4)-symmetry breaking of the NNNN pair and causes the GT fragmentation. We have compared the features of the GT transitions with those for 10Be10B{}^{10}\textrm{Be}\to{}^{10}\textrm{B} and discuss the link of the SU(4)SU(4)-symmetry and the GT fragmentation in the deformed systems.
