Analytical expressions for spectra and wave functions are derived for a Bohr Hamiltonian, describing the collective motion of deformed nuclei, in which the mass is allowed to depend on the nuclear deformation. Solutions are obtained for separable potentials consisting of a Davidson potential in the β variable, in the cases of γ-unstable nuclei, axially symmetric prolate deformed nuclei, and triaxial nuclei, implementing the usual approximations in each case. The solution, called the Deformation Dependent Mass (DDM) Davidson model, is achieved by using techniques of supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SUSYQM), involving a deformed shape invariance condition. Spectra and B(E2) transition rates are compared to experimental data. The dependence of the mass on the deformation, dictated by SUSYQM for the potential used, reduces the rate of increase of the moment of inertia with deformation, removing a main drawback of the model.
The Deformation Dependent Mass (DDM) Kratzer model is constructed by considering the Kratzer potential in a Bohr Hamiltonian, in which the mass is allowed to depend on the nuclear deformation, and solving it by using techniques of supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SUSYQM), involving a deformed shape invariance condition. Analytical expressions for spectra and wave functions are derived for separable potentials in the cases of γ-unstable nuclei, axially symmetric prolate deformed nuclei, and triaxial nuclei, implementing the usual approximations in each case. Spectra and B(E2) transition rates are compared to experimental data. The dependence of the mass on the deformation, dictated by SUSYQM for the potential used, moderates the increase of the moment of inertia with deformation, removing a main drawback of the model.
The Bohr Hamiltonian describing the collective motion of atomic nuclei is
modified by allowing the mass to depend on the nuclear deformation. Exact
analytical expressions are derived for spectra and wave functions in the case
of a gamma-unstable Davidson potential, using techniques of supersymmetric
quantum mechanics. Numerical results in the Xe-Ba region are discussed.Comment: 13 pages, LaTeX, 3 eps figure
A conformal factor in the Bohr model embeds Bohr space in six dimensions,
revealing the $O(6)$ symmetry and its contraction to the $E(5)$ at infinity.
Phenomenological consequences are discussed after the re-formulation of the
Bohr Hamiltonian in six dimensions on a five sphere
The Deformation Dependent Mass Davidson Model is an extension of the well known Bohr-Mottelson Hamiltonian for the atomic nuclei. It primarily refers to the mass dependence on the deformation and secondary to the Davidson behavior for the potential of the Ø-vibration. This article will be devoted solely in the solution of the radial equation. Fitting results for the 162Dy and 238U ground state, β1 and γ1 bands are also presented.
We examine the coexistence of spherical and γ-unstable deformed nuclear shapes, described by an SO(5)-invariant Bohr Hamiltonian, along the critical-line. Calculations are performed in the Algebraic Collective Model by introducing two separate bases, optimized to accommodate simultaneously different forms of dynamics. We demonstrate the need to modify the β-dependence of the moments of inertia, in order to obtain an adequate description of such shape-coexistence. arXiv:1712.04392v1 [nucl-th]
