چکیده

The two instructive effects concerning fragment production at disintegration of finite nuclei are predicted with the statistical multi-fragmentation model: (1) a concentration of neutrons in intermediate mass fragments during the phase transition, (2) the break of the spatial symmetry of the fragment's isospin distribution, as well as of the symmetry of the fragment's emission from a statistical source, induced by the external Coulomb field. The knowledge of the isotope composition of fragments produced in nuclear multifragmentation can help in resolving the important problems: Do the fragments keep memory about the initial dynamical stage or they have statistical origin? How the isospin influences disintegration of finite nuclei and what is the difference from the case of nuclear matter? What is the isospin dependence of the nuclear equation of state? Generally, this study addresses an intriguing interdisciplinary problem of the phase transition in a finite-size two-component system (i.e. in a nucleus consisting of neutrons and protons), that is instructive for all fields dealing with finite systems. The problem was investigated within the statistical multifragmentation model (SMM) [1], which is successfully used for explanation of experimental data. A new Markov chain method of partition generation was incorporated in the model [2], that allows for considering the multifragmentation process on a solid microcanonical basis. The presented results reflect statistical properties of the fragment production and can be used for identification of the phenomenon. Presently, one of the extensively discussed topics is the isospin fraction-ation at disintegration of excited nuclei [3]. Fig. 1 shows mass distributions and neutron-to-proton ratios (N/Z) of the fragments produced after multi-fragmentation of a Au source (mass number A s =197, charge Z s =79), the 1

Extensive systematizations of theoretical and experimental nuclear densities and of optical potential strengths extracted from heavy-ion elastic scattering data analyses at low and intermediate energies are presented. The energy-dependence of the nuclear potential is accounted for within a model based on the nonlocal nature of the interaction. The systematics indicates that the heavy-ion nuclea...

The matrix elements of the quadrupole collective variables, emerging from collective nuclear models, are calculated in the natural Cartan-Weyl basis of O(5) which is a subgroup of a covering SU (1, 1) × O(5) structure. Making use of an intermediate set method, explicit expressions of the matrix elements are obtained in a pure algebraic way, fixing the γ-rotational structure of collective quadru...

We show that the statistical multifragmentation model with the standard param-eterization of the free volume predicts a constant pressure as density approaches the normal nuclear density. This is contrary to the Raduta&Raduta result obtained by disregarding the center of mass constraint. It is demonstrated that in finite nuclear systems the partitions with small number of fragments play an impo...

Pseudospin symmetry in nuclei is investigated considering the Dirac equation with a Lorentz structured Woods-Saxon potential. The isospin correlation of the energy splittings of pseudospin partners with the nuclear potential parameters is studied. We show that, in an isotopic chain, the pseudospin symmetry is better realized for neutrons than for protons. This behavior comes from balance effect...
