1 Recent advances in nuclear reaction theories for weakly bound nuclei Antonio M. Moro Universidad de Sevilla, Spain May 25, 215 Workshop on Weakly Bound Exotic Nuclei, Natal (Brasil), May 215 A. M. Moro Universidad de Sevilla 1/31

2 Outline 1 Core excitation effects in reactions Static and dynamic core excitations. Implementation in the CDCC framework. Application to nuclear and Coulomb breakup of 11 Be. 2 The problem of inclusive breakup. The Ichimura, Austern, Vincent (IAV) model revisited. Application to deuteron and 6 Li inclusive breakup. Workshop on Weakly Bound Exotic Nuclei, Natal (Brasil), May 215 A. M. Moro Universidad de Sevilla 2/31

3 Why do we use few-body models in reactions? Microscopic approach 11 Be n Be* Start from (effective) NN interaction. Complicated many-body scattering problem [Descouvemont and Hussein, PRL 111, 8271 ( 13)] Few-body approach 11 Be Be n Projectile described with few-body model Inert clusters (cluster excitations not included) Phenomenological cluster-target interactions More transparent link between reaction and structure Workshop on Weakly Bound Exotic Nuclei, Natal (Brasil), May 215 A. M. Moro Universidad de Sevilla 3/31

4 Standard CDCC approach to the few-body scattering problem Example: 7 Li scattering in a three-body model 3-body Hamiltonian: H= T R + h r + V α (r α )+V t (r t ) Model wavefunction: Ψ(R, r)=φ gs (r)χ (R)+ N φ n (r)χ n (R) n> Coupled equations: [H E]Ψ(R, r)= [ E εn T R V n,n (R) ] χ n (R)= V n,n (R)χ n (R) 7 n n Li α r t R r α r t T Transition potentials: V n,n (R)= drφ n (r) [V α(r α )+V t (r t )]φ n (r) Workshop on Weakly Bound Exotic Nuclei, Natal (Brasil), May 215 A. M. Moro Universidad de Sevilla 4/31

5 Limitations of the standard CDCC 1 Does not provide breakup accompanied by target excitation, eg. d+a p+n+a generalized in Yahiro et al, Prog. Theor. Phys. Suppl. 89 (1986)32 2 Originally limited to two-body projectiles (three-body reactions) recently extended to 3-body projectiles ( 6 He, 11 Li): Matsumoto et al, NPA738 (24) 471, PRC7 (24) 6161(R). Rodriguez-Gallardo et al, PRC72 (25) 247, PRC77 (28) Projectile described with single-particle /cluster models (ignores mixing of configurations and cluster excitations). 4 Does not provide breakup accompanied by absorption of one of the fragments (incomplete fusion).

11 Full CDCC calculations with core excitation Standard CDCC use coupling potentials: V α;α (R)= Ψ α J M ( r) V vt(r vt )+V ct (r ct ) Ψ α JM ( r) Extended CDCC (XCDCC) use generalized coupling potentials V α;α (R)= Ψ α J M ( r,ξ) V vt(r vt )+V ct (r ct,ξ) Ψ α JM ( r,ξ) Ψ α JM ( r,ξ): two-body WF with deformed potential (e.g. PRM, PVM, etc), microscopic transition densities, etc (static/structure effect) The non-central part of V ct (r ct,ξ) gives rise to core excitations/deexcitations (dynamic core excitation).

14 Comparison of E1 probabilities db(e1)/de (e 2 fm 2 /MeV) Palit et al. (GSI) Fukuda et al. (RIKEN) Single-particle model (Capel et al) PRM (Summers et al) Millener et al E rel (MeV) 11 Be models: Data: Single-particle model: Capel et al, PRC 68, (23) Deformed-core model: Summers et al, PLB 65, 24 (27) - Nakamura et al, Phys.Lett. B331, 296 (1994), RIKEN - Palit et al, PRC 68, (23), GSI. - Fukuda et al, PRC 7, 5466 (24), RIKEN. - Millener et al, PRC 28, 497 (1983). The single-particle model assumed in CDCC reproduces the continuum B(E1), but overestimates the B(E1) for the bound state by a factor of 2. The particle-plus-deformed core model assumed in XCDCC reproduces the bound and unbound B(E1) strengths. The XCDCC analysis of the Coulomb-barrier data for 11 Be+ 197 Au supports the B(E1) strength extracted from the Coulomb dissociation experiment 11 Be+ 28 Pb at RIKEN by Fukuda et al.

39 Conclusions Recent extensions of existing few-body reaction models, including their application to 3-body projectiles and core excitations in the structure and dynamics, are expected to improve our understanding of reactions with exotic nuclei. Core excitation effects have been found to be important for breakup, particularly with light target. Could be important for A(p, pn) quasi-free scattering reactions? Inclusive breakup theories show a promising agreement with existing breakup data, but remaining discrepancies with data might require going beyond DWBA. These theories may provide a promising framework for applications of current interest requiring inclusive breakup cross sections: surrogate reactions, incomplete fusion studies, knockout reactions, etc. Workshop on Weakly Bound Exotic Nuclei, Natal (Brasil), May 215 A.
