Shadow poles in the alternative parametrization of $R$ -matrix theory

Pablo Ducru, Benoit Forget, Vladimir Sobes, Gerald Hale, and Mark Paris

Phys. Rev. C 103, 064608 (2021) - Published 14 June, 2021

As a trilogy, this first paper along with the authors’ two companion articles introduces alternate approaches to standard $R$ -matrix parametrization of nuclear cross sections. The authors present first evidence of so-called shadow poles in $R$ -matrix theory for $^{134}$ Xe. The number and location of shadow poles depends upon how one continues the $R$ -matrix operators to complex wave numbers. The authors also establish a new pole parametrization of $R$ -matrix cross sections, called the $w i n d o w e d$ $m u l t i p o l e$ $p a r a m e t r i z a t i o n$ , which can be Doppler-broadened analytically. This averaging of cross sections over the thermal motion of target atoms is crucial as it ensures the stability of many nuclear reactors; yet, computing it is a major bottleneck. Doppler-broadened windowed multipole cross sections and their uncertainty can be stored and computed with breakthrough performance.
