10 METHOD OF INDEPENDENT SOURCES OF LINE SPREADING (Kolomietz, Plujko, Shlomo, PRC 54 (1996) 3014) h h h = + τ ( ω, T) τ ( ω, T) τw Σ coll Two-body collisional damping is relaxation due to coupling of 1p-1h to more complicated states (ph and so on) lying at the same excitation energy ( in the kinetic theory simulated by the collision integral. One-body dissipation corresponds to strength-function fragmentation caused by interaction of particles with the time-dependent selfconsistent mean field. In the RPA calculations this contribution to the damping indicates a redistribution of 1p-1h excitations in a vicinity of collective state ( in kinetic equation approach imitated by the one-body ("wall") relaxation). Deformation splitting is considered in approximation of axiallydeformed nuclei (-component RSF) with β, eff = f( Q[{ β j}])

11 PECULARITIES OF TWO-PARTICLE COLLISIONS IN PRESENSE OF AN EXTERNAL FIELD Energy conservation law is changed and becomes dependent on field frequency due to possibility of exchange of the energy between the particles and field hω It means changing arguments of function which is ensured the conservation of the energy of the colliding particles δ δ + => ) ( ε ε 1 ε ε 3 ε 4 ) δ ( ε ±hω As a result, a probability of two-body collisions is also dependent on field frequency

31 A violation of the Brink hypothesis The gamma-decay RSF depends on excitation energy. The dependence is the most important for transitions with low gammaray energies where values of RSF are growing with excitation energy

32 Dipole strength functions of E 1 gamma-decay within MLO1 and EGLO models at different excitation energies Low-energy part of gamma-decay RSF increase with excitation energy (EGLO, GFL, MLO) s f ( E 0~ ) T = i const

33 Main conclusions Most reliable simple description of E1 RSF for gamma-decay can be obtained by the use of models of asymmetric shapes with dependence of line spreading on excitation energy The energy dependence of parameter of line spreading ( width ) is governed by complex mechanisms of nuclear dissipation&splitting (two-body collisions, strength fragmentation, deformation splitting ) and contributions of different relaxation channels are still open problem Renewed values of GDR parameters with uncertainties should be used for more reliable description of gamma-transitions and studies of GDR properties

34 Main conclusions Among other simple models, MLO approach potentially can lead to more reliable predictions of RSF for E1 gammatransitions between c-c states because it is based on general relations between RSF and nuclear response function in hot nuclei To better understand role of the temperature and energy dependence of the RSF, experimental data, especially in low gamma-ray energy range, are needed as the functions of both gamma-ray and excitation energies R.Capote, M.Herman, P.Oblozinsky, P.G.Young, S.Goriely, T.Belgya, A.V.Ignatyuk, A..J..Koning, S.
