Resonance plays critical roles in the formation of many physical phenomena, and several methods have been developed for the exploration of resonance. In this work, we propose a new scheme for resonance by solving the Dirac equation in complex momentum representation, in which the resonant states are exposed clearly in complex momentum plane and the resonance parameters can be determined precisely without imposing unphysical parameters. Combining with the relativistic mean-field theory, this method is applied to probe the resonances in $^{120}$Sn with the energies, widths, and wavefunctions being obtained. Comparing with other methods, this method is not only very effective for narrow resonances, but also can be reliably applied to broad resonances.

Resonance plays critical roles in the formation of many physical phenomena, and many techniques have been developed for the exploration of resonance. In a recent letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 117, 062502 (2016)], we proposed a new method for probing single-particle resonances by solving the Dirac equation in complex momentum representation for spherical nuclei. Here, we extend this method to deformed nuclei with theoretical formalism presented. We elaborate numerical details, and calculate the bound and resonant states in $^{37}$Mg. The results are compared with those from the coordinate representation calculations with a satisfactory agreement. In particular, the present method can expose clearly the resonant states in complex momentum plane and determine precisely the resonance parameters for not only narrow resonances but also broad resonances that were difficult to obtain before.
We generalize the theory of nuclear decay and capture of Gamow that is based on tunneling through the barrier and internal oscillations inside the nucleus. In our formalism an additional factor is obtained, which describes distribution of the wave function of the $alpha$ particle inside the nuclear region. We discover new most stable states (called quasibound states) of the compound nucleus (CN) formed during the capture of $alpha$ particle by the nucleus. With a simple example, we explain why these states cannot appear in traditional calculations of the $alpha$ capture cross sections based on monotonic penetrabilities of a barrier, but they appear in a complete description of the evolution of the CN. Our result is obtained by a complete description of the CN evolution, which has the advantages of (1) a clear picture of the formation of the CN and its disintegration, (2) a detailed quantum description of the CN, (3) tests of the calculated amplitudes based on quantum mechanics (not realized in other approaches), and (4) high accuracy of calculations (not achieved in other approaches). These peculiarities are shown with the capture reaction of $alpha + ^{44}{rm Ca}$. We predict quasibound energy levels and determine fusion probabilities for this reaction. The difference between our approach and theory of quasistationary states with complex energies applied for the $alpha$ capture is also discussed. We show (1) that theory does not provide calculations for the cross section of $alpha$ capture (according to modern models of the $alpha$ capture), in contrast with our formalism, and (2) these two approaches describe different states of the $alpha$ capture (for the same $alpha$-nucleus potential).
The determination of the color force in a quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is a key objective in the investigation of strong-interaction matter. Open and hidden heavy-flavor observables in heavy-ion collisions (HICs) are believed to provide insights into this problem by comparing calculations of heavy-quark (HQ) and quarkonium transport with pertinent experimental data. In this work, we utilize the $T$-matrix formalism to compute charm-quark transport coefficients for various input potentials previously extracted from simultaneous fits to lattice-QCD data for HQ free energies, quarkonium correlators and the QGP equation of state. We investigate the impact of off-shell effects (spectral functions) in the QGP medium on the HQ transport, and compare to earlier results using the free or internal HQ energies as potential proxies. We then employ the transport coefficients in relativistic Langevin simulations for HICs to test the sensitivity of heavy-flavor observables to the HQ interactions in the QGP. We find that a strongly-coupled $T$-matrix solution generates a HQ elliptic flow comparable to the results from the internal energy at low momentum, driven by a long-range remnant of the confining force, while falling off stronger with increasing 3-momentum. The weakly coupled $T$-matrix solution, whose underlying potential is close to the free energy, leads to an elliptic flow well below the experimentally observed range.
Halo is one of the most interesting phenomena in exotic nuclei especially for $^{31}$Ne, which is deemed to be a halo nucleus formed by a $p-$wave resonance. However, the theoretical calculations dont suggest a $p-$wave resonance using the scattering phase shift approach or complex scaling method. Here, we apply the complex momentum representation method to explore resonances in $^{31}$Ne. We have calculated the single-particle energies for bound and resonant states together with their evolutions with deformation. The results show that the $p-$wave resonances appear clearly in the complex momentum plane accompanied with the $p-f$ inversion in the single-particle levels. As it happens the $p-f$ inversion, the calculated energy, width, and occupation probabilities of major components in the level occupied by valance neutron support a $p-$wave halo for $^{31}$Ne.
We predict that the mean transverse momentum of charged hadrons $langle p_trangle$ rises as a function of the charged-particle multiplicity in ultracentral nucleus-nucleus collisions. We explain that this phenomenon has a simple physical origin and represents an unambiguous prediction of the hydrodynamic framework of heavy-ion collisions. We argue that the relative increase of $langle p_t rangle$ is proportional to the speed of sound squared $c_s^2$ of the quark-gluon plasma. Based on the value of $c_s^2$ from lattice QCD, we expect $langle p_trangle$ to increase by approximately $18$ MeV between 1% and 0.001% centrality in Pb+Pb collisions at $sqrt{s_{rm NN}}=5.02$ TeV.
