12 Photo reactions - Theoretical considerations

13 Photo reactions - Theoretical considerations The Wave Functions We solve the A-body non-realtivistic Schroedinger equation. The Hamiltonian H = T + ij V (2) ij + V (3) ijk +... ijk High precision two-nucleon potentials, well constraint by NN phaseshifts Less established 3NF EFT provides a solid theoretical framework for construction of the potentials. Phenomenological potential models are not that bad either.

14 Photo reactions - Theoretical considerations (II) The Electro-Magnetic Current The EM current is a sum of convection and spin currents J(x) = J c(x) + J s(x) = J c(x) + µ(x) Classicaly, the convection current J c = i Z iv i is the flow of the charged particles. In nuclei J c(x) is mainly due to proton movement. Meson exchange between nucleons leads to 2, 3,...-body currents J = J 1 + J Cold atoms are neutral J c(x) = 0 and the current µ(x) is dominated by the electronic spins.

For spin-flip reaction a Fermi type operator is the leading contribution to the cross-section, and R(ω) ω. 3. For frozen-spin reactions the monopole R 2 and the Quadrupole are the leading terms, and R(ω) ω We have studied Dimer formation and found that the reaction mechanism change from monopole to quadrupole with increasing gas temprature. 5. We have studied the Quadrupole response of a bosonic trimer near threshold. 6. We have seen that the response function diverge as E The sum-rules S 1, S 0, S 1 diverge as well. 8. We note that the divergence pattern of the sum-rules doesn t follow the simple dimensional analysis.
