Dependence of spin induced structural transitions on level density and Neutron emission spectra


الملخص بالإنكليزية

The impact of spin induced deformation and shape phase transitions on nuclear level density and consequently on neutron emission spectra of the decay of compound nuclear systems 112^Ru to 123^Cs (N = 68 isotones) is investigated in a microscopic framework of Statistical theory of superfluid nuclei. Our calculations are in good accord with experimental data for evaporation residue of 119^Sb^* and 185^Re^* and show a strong correlation between spin induced structural transitions and NLD. We find that the inverse level density parameter K increases with increasing spin for all the systems, but it decreases with a deformation or a shape change that results in the enhancement of level density and emission probability. A sharp shape phase transition from oblate to uncommon prolate non-collective in well deformed nuclei leads to band crossing and enhancement of level density which fades away while approaching sphericity at or near shell closure manifesting shell effects.
