Abstract

The damping of collective states is a subject of broad interest, especially in finite manybody systems. We present a model to explain the saturation of the spreading widths of giant resonances in hot nuclei and the spreading widths of multiphonon states in terms of the chaotic dynamics governing the coupling of collective motion to incoherent degrees of freedom.
