Resonant states and pseudospin symmetry in the Dirac Morse potential

The complex scaling method is applied to study the resonances of a Dirac particle in a Morse potential. The applicability of the method is demonstrated with the results compared with the available data. It is shown that the present calculations in the nonrelativistic limit are in excellent agreement with the nonrelativistic calculations. Further, the dependence of the resonant parameters on the shape of the potential is checked, and the unusual sensitivity to the potential parameters is revealed. By comparing the energies and widths of the pseudospin doublets, well pseudospin symmetry is discovered in the present model. The relationship between the pseudospin symmetry and the shape of the potential is investigated by changing the Morse potential shaped by the dissociation energy, the equilibrium intermolecular distance, and the positive number controlling the decay length of the potential.

Resonant states of deformed nuclei in complex scaling method

We develop a complex scaling method for describing the resonances of deformed nuclei and present a theoretical formalism for the bound and resonant states on the same footing. With $^{31}$Ne as an illustrated example, we have demonstrated the utility and applicability of the extended method and have calculated the energies and widths of low-lying neutron resonances in $^{31}$Ne. The bound and resonant levels in the deformed potential are in full agreement with those from the multichannel scattering approach. The width of the two lowest-lying resonant states shows a novel evolution with deformation and supports an explanation of the deformed halo for $^{31}$Ne.
