Systematic analysis of double Gamow-Teller sum rules

Nuclear Theory 2026-04-02 v2

Abstract

Sum rules are important bulk properties of transition strength functions for atomic nuclei. Unlike the Ikeda sum rule for single Gamow-Teller transition, double Gamow-Teller transition sum rules rely on the details of many-body wavefunctions. We approximate the shell model ground state with nucleon-pair condensates, by projection after variation, and compute double Gamow-Teller (DGT) transition sum rules from both β+\beta+ and β\beta- directions. By systematic investigation of DGT sum rules of even-even nuclei in the 1s0d1s0d, 1p0f1p0f major shells, we quantitatively estimate the model-dependent fractions in the sum rules, and analyze the importance of double isospin-analogue state in the DGT strength function.
