1 Nature of low-energy dipole states in exotic nuclei Xavier Roca-Maza Università degli Studi di Milano, Via Celoria 16, I-133, Milano SPES One-day Workshop on "Collective Excitations of Exotic Nuclei" December 9, 13, Milano 1
2 Motivation Giant Resonances are collective excitations of atomic nuclei. The measurement of such (high-energy) excitations has allowed us to constraint many properties of the nuclear equation of state Giant Monopole Resonance K [G. Colò, N. Van Giai, J. Meyer, K. Bennaceur and P. Bonche, Phys. Rev. C 7, 2437 (4)] Giant Dipole Resonance S 2 (ρ =.1 fm 3 ) [Luca Trippa, Gianluca Colò, and Enrico Vigezzi, Phys. Rev. C 77, 6134(R) (8)] Giant Quadrupole Resonance m [ Nuclear Structure, Bohr & Mottelson E x = 2m/m hω] Experiments on Giant Resonances constitute a basic tool for the study of fundamental properties of the nuclear strong interaction. 2
3 Motivation What is the Pygmy Dipole Strength (PDS)? Giant Dipole Resonance Pygmy dipole Low-energy peak in the dipole response of neutron rich (exotic) nuclei It might be relevant in... neutron-capture rates in the r processes since the energy window for both observables is similar if collective, it may be correlated with the slope of the symmetry energy (L): a basic property of the nuclear EoS that impacts on a variety of physical systems: from the very big (neutron stars) to the very small (neutron skin) The PDS seems to appear in certain models as a coherent excitation (resonance), and not in others (shell effect) β decay rates and radiative neutron capture. In the latter,σmay increase due to the low-energye1 enhancement when approaching the neutron drip line. [A. C. Larsen and S. Goriely, PRC 82, ()] 3

In the latter, σ may increase due to the low-energy E1 enhancement when approaching the neutron drip line. [A. C. Larsen and S. Goriely, PRC 82, ()] 4
6 Motivation: experimentally, the PDS splits into two parts... J. Endres et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 5, () Alpha-gamma coincidence experiments allow the separation of E1 excitations in... one part excited via (α,α γ) [dominant isoscalar excitation where the probe mainly interacts with the nuclear surface] and (γ,γ ) and the other only via (γ,γ ) [dominant isovector excitation where the probe interacts with the whole nucleus] 5

8 Contents Microscopic analysis of the PDS: model dependence and sensitivity to the symmetry energy We study the PDS within the self-consistent HF+RPA approach in the exotic 68 Ni and 132 Sn and the stable 8 Pb nuclei. For that, we use three Skyrme interactions with very different isovector properties (L ranges from 4 MeV to MeV). We focus on: RPA and unperturbed dipole strength. the transition densities. the isoscalar or isovector nature. the most relevant p-h contributions. X. Roca-Maza, G. Pozzi, M.Brenna, K.

19 Conclusions: PDS in 68 Ni, 132 Sn, 8 Pb: 1 The IV (and IS) dipole response show a low-energy peak in the strength function for all studied nuclei and models. 2 Such an IV peak (and also IS) increases in magnitude with increasing values of L [in agreement with other works]. 3 The collectivity associated with the RPA states giving rise to the PDS show up depending on the nature of the probe used for exciting the nucleus: there is systematically more collectivity in the IS than in the IV transitions. 4 The low-energy IV and IS responses are basically due to the outermost neutrons. 5 The isoscalarity displayed by the RPA states giving rise to the PDS may probe isoscalar properties. 17
20 Conclusions: Therefore, IS probes interacting with the surface of the nucleus seem to be more suitable for the study of the low-energy dipole response in nuclei far from the stability valley. The properties of the PDS may display an involved correlation with the parameters of the nuclear EoS that it is not clear enough yet This puzzle may be solved by performing more studies on neutron-rich systems For that, we miss some systematic scattering experiments (in inverse kinematics) that can excite predominantly IS states like (α,α ) or ( 16 O, 16 O ) [See next talk from Prof. Lanza] 18
