Electromagnetic dipole and Gamow-Teller responses of even and odd 90-94 40Zr isotopes in QRPA calculations with the D1M Gogny force

Abstract

In this paper we present theoretical results on the dipole response in the proton spin-saturated 90-94Zr isotopes. The electric and magnetic dipole excitations are obtained in Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov plus Quasi-particle Random Phase Approximation (QRPA) calculations performed with the D1M Gogny force. A pnQRPA charge exchange code is used to study the Gamow-Teller response. The results on the pygmy, the giant dipole resonances as well as those on the magnetic nuclear spin-flip excitation and the Gamow-Teller transitions are compared with available experimental or theoretical information. In our approach, the proton pairing plays a role in the phonon excitations, in particular in the M1 nuclear spin-flip resonance.
