In the core collapsing supernovae(SNe), medium and heavy elements are believed to be produced by r-process and s-process.

Since most of these nuclei are thought to be more or less deformed, we need to explicitly take into account of the deformation in the nuclear structure.

Why do we consider the deformation in the nuclear structure?

ECT*-APCTP Joint Workshop, Sep. 15, 2015

Since the high density (≈104g/cm3)and low temperature on the neutron star crust make electrons degenerated. The degenerated electrons block the beta decay and induce electric captures. Therefore, the valley of stability is shifted toward neutron-rich nuclei.Ordinary nuclei become highly unstable, and RI become the normal stable nuclei at the neutron-star crusts !!

The rapid proton process(rp-process) is thought to be occurred on the binary star system composed of a massive compact star and a companion star.

Deformation could be of practical importance on the understanding of the nucleosynthesis.

The neutron-proton (np) pairing correlations are important in nuclear structure and decay for proton-rich nuclei with N ≈ Z : protons and neutrons occupy identicalorbitals and have maximal spatial overlap.

Since the deformed SPS are expanded in terms of the spherical SP bases the different total angular momenta of the SP basis states would be mixed.

Realistic two body interaction was taken by Brueckner G-matrix, which is asolution of the Bethe-Goldstone Eq., derived from the Bonn-CD one-bosonexchange potential.

The particle model space 5 ħω is not enough to reproduce the empirical pairing gap. Therefore, the particle model space can be used beyond 6 ħω in G−matrix. In this calculation we use Nmax=10 ħω in G−matrix. (5 ħω in deformed basis)

25

Motivations Summary

The values of np pairing gaps δpnemp are not negligible even for large neutron

excess isotopes. The attractive short-range interaction between one unpaired proton and neutron with energies close to the Fermi surface is considered to be the origin of the np paring interaction. The np-pairing interaction can be associated with the deformation effect, which is changing the distribution of proton and neutron SP levels.

Gnp =0.275 in (a), gnp=1.75 in (b) The np-pairing gap decreases with neutron excess. It heavily depends on the deformation parameter β2 for 64Ge. If we use Gnp ≥ 0.275(gnp ≥ 1.75), np-pairing gap is not zero for N-Z =8~10 nuclei.

Does the δpn depend on the deformation parameter β2 ?

ECT*-APCTP Joint Workshop, Sep. 15, 2015

The np pairing gap is sensitive to the β2.

Since the spherical SPS are split by the deformation, the energy gaps of protons and neutrons are also scattered. Therefore the overlap of wave functions becomes smaller and energy gaps becomes larger. The np pairing gaps decrease with the deformation.

Motivations Results Formalism Summary

1. We used the deformed WS potential and then performed the deformed BCS and deformed QRPA with realistic two-body interaction calculated by Brueckner G- matrix based on Bonn potential.2. Results of the Gamow-Teller strength, B(GT±), for 76Ge and 76,82Se show that the deformation effect leads to a fragmentation of the GT strength into high-lying GT excited states.3. We examined isovector(T=1) and isoscalar(T=0) np-pairing correlations for the ground state of even-even Ge isotopes, A=64–76, within the deformed BCS approach.4. For N=Z 64Ge a sharp phase transition from the pp(nn)-pairing mode to the np -pairing mode is observed.5.The T=0,1 np-pairing correlations should be considered also for medium- heavy nuclei with large neutron excess since the np-pairing effect is not negligible.6.The change of Fermi level and the modified smearing of Fermi surface were found for N ≠ Z as well as N = Z nuclei. These variations may affect many important nuclear electro-magnetic and weak transitions in nuclear physics.7.The GT strength for 24Mg in DQRPA with np-pairing reproduce well experimental data.
