Effects of quasiparticle-vibration coupling on Gamow-Teller strength and $β$ decay with the Skyrme proton-neutron finite-amplitude method

Qunqun Liu, Jonathan Engel, Nobuo Hinohara, and Markus Kortelainen

Phys. Rev. C 109, 044308 (2024) - Published 4 April, 2024

The authors extend the proton-neutron finite-amplitude method, an iterative and efficient form of the Skyrme quasiparticle random-phase approximation that needs no diagonalization of the $p n$ QRPA matrix, for the coupling of quasiparticles to like-particle phonons. With this approach one can add beyond-QRPA correlations to computations of important nuclear properties such as Gamow-Teller strength and $β$ -decay rates in deformed nuclei. The results show improved agreement with existing data for several deformed nuclei, a promising step toward a more reliable framework for large-scale $β$ -decay calculations needed, e.g., for $r$ -process modeling.

${}^{16}O$ spectral function from coupled-cluster theory: Applications to lepton-nucleus scattering

J. E. Sobczyk and S. Bacca

Phys. Rev. C 109, 044314 (2024) - Published 8 April, 2024

Neutrino experiments such as long-baseline oscillation measurements can determine properties of fundamental particles, but the present systematic uncertainties, e.g., in the neutrino-nucleus cross sections, must be significantly reduced. The authors determine the $^{16}$ O spectral function from an $a b$ - $i n i t i o$ calculation with realistic two- and three-body interactions that is benchmarked against earlier $^{4}$ He results. They then obtain good results in the relativistic regime for quasi-elastic electron scattering as well as for neutrino scattering data from T2K. The predictions for both electron and neutrino scattering identify a particular need for low-energy electron-scattering data on $^{16}$ O, for which a program is underway at MAMI in Germany. And being able to propagate the theoretical uncertainties to the final cross sections promises improved understanding of the anticipated more precise results from next-generation neutrino experiments.

Data-driven reevaluation of $f t$ values in superallowed $β$ decays

Chien-Yeah Seng and Mikhail Gorchtein

Phys. Rev. C 109, 045501 (2024) - Published 10 April, 2024

Efforts toward a precise determination of $V_{u d}$ and low-energy tests of the electroweak Standard Model have been ongoing for many years. The authors report a comprehensive re-evaluation of the $f t$ values in superallowed nuclear $β$ decays based on a fully data-driven analysis of the nuclear $β$ -decay form factor. They utilize isospin relations to connect the nuclear charged weak distribution to the measurable charge distributions. The approach supersedes previous shell-model estimations and allows for a rigorous quantification of theory uncertainties in the phase-space factor, using experimental input rather than nuclear models. The work identifies the need for specific future experimental research to drive further understanding toward a regime of precision that is relevant for weak-interaction physics and thus for physics beyond the Standard Model.

Search for beyond-mean-field signatures in heavy-ion fusion reactions

R. T. deSouza, K. Godbey, S. Hudan, and W. Nazarewicz

Phys. Rev. C 109, L041601 (2024) - Published 1 April, 2024

High-resolution experimental fusion excitation functions for $^{16, 17, 18}$ O + $^{12}$ C reveal a remarkable irregular behavior rooted in the structure of both the colliding nuclei and the quasimolecular composite system. Using a parameter-free time-dependent Hartree-Fock model, the authors assess the influence of the angular-momentum-dependent fusion barriers on fusion. They find that barrier penetrabilities taken directly from a density-constrained calculation provide a significantly improved description of the experimental data. The results expose the remaining deviations between the mean-field predictions and experimental fusion cross sections, and suggest this approach to garner insight into the impact of nuclear structure effects on fusion reactions.

LETTER

High sensitivity of a future search for effects of $P$ -odd/ $T$ -odd interactions on the 0.75 eV $p$ -wave resonance in $\vec{n} +^{139} \vec{La}$ forward transmission determined using a pulsed neutron beam

R. Nakabe et al.

Phys. Rev. C 109, L041602 (2024) - Published 10 April, 2024

Neutron transmission experiments can realize a high-sensitivity search for time-reversal invariance violation (TRIV) in nucleon-nucleon interactions through the same enhancement mechanism observed for large parity violating (PV) effects in neutron-induced compound nuclear processes. A recent polarized beam/polarized target measurement has now quantified the sensitivity for the best-known case, the 0.75 eV $p$ -wave resonance in $^{139}$ La. By determining the spin-dependent nuclear structure factor that relates TRIV and PV cross sections, this work shows that a future search for $P$ -odd/ $T$ -odd interactions in forward transmission of polarized neutrons on polarized $^{139}$ La would possess high TRIV sensitivity.
