Tensor Effects on Spin-Dependent Charge-Exchange transitions

The tensor terms of the Skyrme effective interaction are included in the self-consistent Hartree- Fock plus Random Phase Approximation (HF+RPA) model. The Gamow-Teller (GT) and Spin-Dipole (SD) strength functions of (208)Pb are calculated with and without the tensor terms. The main GT peak is moved downwards by about 2 MeV and about 10% of the total strength is shifted to the excitation energy region above 30 MeV by the RPA tensor correlation. The SD 0(-) peaks are moved upward while the 1(-) peaks are moved downward dramatically, by the RPA tensor correlation. An qualitative understanding of these effects are given by using a separable tensor force.http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:000275930800018&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=8e1609b174ce4e31116a60747a720701Physics, NuclearSCI(E)CPCI-S(ISTP)
