Compound and rotational damping in warm deformed rare-earth nuclei.

چکیده
The gamma decay in the quasicontinuum from selected configurations of the rotational nucleus 163Er has been measured with the EUROBALL array. A new analysis technique has allowed for the first time to directly measure the compound and rotational damping widths Gamma (micro) and Gamma (rot). Values of Gamma (micro) approximately 20 keV and Gamma (rot) approximately 200 keV are obtained in the spin region I approximately 30-40 variant Planck's over 2pi, in good agreement with microscopic cranked shell model calculations. A dependence of Gamma (micro) and Gamma (rot) on the K-quantum number of the nuclear states is also presented.

Damping of rotational and compound states in warm nuclei
The damping widths associated with compound states of rotating deformed nuclei is analyzed by means of the microscopic shell model calculations. Because of the doorway mechanism present in the damped collective rotation, the rotational E2 transitions is characterized by not only the rotational damping width Γrot but also the spreading width Γnpnh of many-particle many-hole shell model states fo...
متن کاملShell Effects on Rotational Damping in Superdeformed Nuclei
Damping of collective rotational motion in A ∼ 190 and A ∼ 150 superdeformed nuclei is studied by means of the cranked shell model with two-body residual force. Numerical calculations predict that in a typical A ∼ 190 superdeformed nucleus, Hg, the rotational damping width is significantly small, Γrot ∼ 30 keV, and that the number of superdeformed bands in the off-yrast region amounts up to 150...
متن کاملChaotic Behavior in Warm Deformed Nuclei Induced by Residual Two - body Interactions
Band mixing calculations in rapidly rotating well-deformed nuclei are presented, investigating the properties of energy levels and rotational transitions as a function of excitation energy. Substantial fragmentation of E2 transitions is found for Ex > ∼ 800 keV above yrast, which represents the onset of rotational damping. Above Ex ≈ 2 MeV, energy levels and E2 strengths display fluctuations ty...
متن کاملShell Model for Warm Rotating Nuclei
In order to provide a microscopic description of levels and E2 transitions in rapidly rotating nuclei with internal excitation energy up to a few MeV, use is made of a shell model which combines the cranked Nilsson mean-field and the residual surface delta two-body force. The damping of collective rotational motion is investigated in the case of a typical rare-earth nucleus, namely Yb . It is f...
متن کاملA pr 1 99 6 KUNS 1385 Onset of Rotational Damping in Superdeformed Nuclei
We discuss damping of the collective rotational motion in A ∼ 150 superdeformed nuclei by means of a shell model combining the cranked Nilsson mean-filed and the surface-delta two-body residual force. It is shown that, because of the shell structure associated with the superdeformed mean-field, onset energy of the rotational damping becomes Ex ∼ 2 − 3 MeV above yrast line, which is much higher ...
