New cluster approach on properties of 8-11Be isotopes with isospin-dependent spin-orbit potential

Abstract

The nonlocalized clustering approach is generalized to 8-11Be isotopes with isospin dependent spin-orbit potential. A new form of the Tohsaki-Horiuchi-Schuck-Röpke (THSR) wave function is introduced to provide a correct description for the σ-binding neutron in 11Be. Systematic calculations for 8-11Be isotopes are performed and results fit well with experimental values. The low energy spectrum of 11Be is also obtained, especially the correct spin-parity 1/2+ is reproduced for the intruder ground state. The exotic neutron halo structure of 11Be is studied by calculations of root-mean-square radii and density distribution. We obtain a large spatial distribution for the last valence neutron of 11Be, which fits the phenomenological extracted value from experimental data. The spectroscopic factor is also calculated and discussed for the 1/2+ ground state of 11Be.
