The process of proton emission from nuclei is studied by utilizing the two-potential approach of Gurvitz and Kalbermann in the context of the full many-body problem. A time-dependent approach is used for calculating the decay width. Starting from an initial many-body quasi-stationary state, we employ the Feshbach projection operator approach and reduce the formalism to an effective one-body problem. We show that the decay width can be expressed in terms of a one-body matrix element multiplied by a normalization factor. We demonstrate that the traditional interpretation of this normalization as the square root of a spectroscopic factor is only valid for one particular choice of projection operator. This causes no problem for the calculation of the decay width in a consistent microscopic approach, but it leads to ambiguities in the interpretation of experimental results. In particular, spectroscopic factors extracted from a comparison of the measured decay width with a calculated single-particle width may be affected.
We analyze recent data from high-momentum-transfer $(p,pp)$ and $(p,ppn)$ reactions on Carbon. For this analysis, the two-nucleon short-range correlation (NN-SRC) model for backward nucleon emission is extended to include the motion of the NN-pair in the mean field. The model is found to describe major characteristics of the data. Our analysis demonstrates that the removal of a proton from the nucleus with initial momentum 275-550 MeV/c is $92^{+8}_{-18}%$ of the time accompanied by the emission of a correlated neutron that carries momentum roughly equal and opposite to the initial proton momentum. Within the NN-SRC dominance assumption the data indicate that the probabilities of $pp$ or $nn$ SRCs in the nucleus are at least a factor of six smaller than that of $pn$ SRCs. Our result is the first estimate of the isospin structure of NN-SRCs in nuclei, and may have important implication for modeling the equation of state of asymmetric nuclear matter.
We use a recently developed model of relativistic meson-exchange currents to compute the neutron-proton and proton-proton yields in $( u_mu,mu^-)$ scattering from $^{12}$C in the 2p-2h channel. We compute the response functions and cross sections wit h the relativistic Fermi gas model for different kinematics from intermediate to high momentum transfers. We find a large contribution of neutron-proton configurations in the initial state, as compared to proton-proton pairs. In the case of charge-changing neutrino scattering the 2p-2h cross section of proton-proton emission ({it i.e.,} np in the initial state) is much larger than for neutron-proton emission ({it i.e.,} two neutrons in the initial state) by a $(omega,q)$-dependent factor. The different emission probabilities of distinct species of nucleon pairs are produced in our model only by meson-exchange currents, mainly by the $Delta$ isobar current. We also analyze other effects including exchange contributions and the effect of the axial and vector currents.
We present expressions for the matrix elements of the spin--spin operator $vec S_{rm n}cdotvec S_{rm p}$ in a variety of coupling schemes. These results are then applied to calculate the expectation value $langlevec S_{rm n}cdotvec S_{rm p}rangle$ in eigenstates of a schematic Hamiltonian describing neutrons and protons interacting in a single-$l$ shell through a Surface Delta Interaction. The model allows us to trace $langlevec S_{rm n}cdotvec S_{rm p}rangle$ as a function of the competition between the isovector and isoscalar interaction strengths and the spin--orbit splitting of the $j=lpm frac{1}{2}$ shells. We find negative $langlevec S_{rm n}cdotvec S_{rm p}rangle$ values in the ground state of all even--even $N=Z$ nuclei, contrary to what has been observed in hadronic inelastic scattering at medium energies. We discuss the possible origin of this discrepancy and indicate directions for future theoretical and experimental studies related to neutron--proton spin--spin correlations.
It is shown that the renormalized nuclear deformations in different mass regions can be globally scaled by two probability partition factors of Boltzmann-like distribution, which are derived from the competing valence $np$ and like-nucleon interactio ns. The partition factors are simply related to the probabilities of anti-parallel and fully-aligned orientations of the angular momenta of the neutrons and protons in the valence $np$ pairs, responsible for spherical- and deformed-shape phases, respectively. The partition factors derived from the renormalized deformations are also present in the new scaling law for the energies of the first $2^+$ states. A striking concordance between the distributions of the renormalized deformations and of the newly introduced parameter for the energies of the first $2^+$ states over the extended mass region from Ge to Cf is achieved, giving strong support to the existence of two phases: anti-aligned and fully-aligned subsets of $np$ pairs.
