Abstract
An approach utilizing the microscopic pairing Hamiltonian is proposed to simultaneously describe the nuclear level density and radiative strength function, taking into account the thermal effects of the exact pairing as well as the giant resonances within the phonon-damping model. The good agreement between the results of calculations and experimental data extracted by the Oslo group for 170,171,172Yb isotopes demonstrates the importance of exact thermal pairing in the description of nuclear level densities at low and intermediate excitation energies and invalidates the assumption based on the Brink-Axel hypothesis in the description of the radiative strength functions.
