Reappearance of the pairing correlations at finite temperature

Abstract

Rotational and deformation dependence of isovector and isoscalar pairing correlations at finite temperature are studied in an exactly solvable cranked deformed shell model Hamiltonian. It is shown that isovector pairing correlations, as expected, decrease with increasing deformation and the isoscalar pairing correlations remain constant at temperature, T=0. However, it is observed that at finite temperature both isovector and isoscalar pairing correlations are enhanced with increasing deformation, which contradict the mean-field predictions. It is also demonstrated that the pair correlations, which are quenched at T=0 and high rotational frequency re-appear at finite temperature. The changes in the individual multipole pairing fields as a function of rotation and deformation are analyzed in detail.
