Discrete and continuum spectra in the unified shell model approach
arXiv:nucl-th/0408026 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.94.052501
Abstract
A new version of the nuclear shell model unifies the consideration of the discrete spectrum, where the results agree with the standard shell model, and continuum. The ingredients of the method are the non-Hermitian effective Hamiltonian, energy-dependent one-body and two-body decay amplitudes, and self-consistent treatment of thresholds. The results for helium and oxygen isotope chains well reproduce the data.
