Damping parameters of charge-exchange giant monopole resonances within a semi-microscopic approach

The recently proposed semi-microscopic approach, which consists in incorporating the “Coulomb description” of isospin-forbidden processes into the particle-hole dispersive optical model, is implemented to evaluate the main damping parameters of charge-exchange giant monopole resonances (including isobaric analog resonances) in medium-heavy spherical nuclei. The calculation results obtained for the 208Pb and 209Pb parent nuclei are compared with available experimental data
