Dynamical α-cluster model of ~(16)O

摘要

We calculate the low-lying spectrum of the ~(16)O nucleus using an α-cluster model which includes the important tetrahedral and square configurations. Our approach is motivated by the dynamics of α-particle scattering in the Skyrme model.We are able to replicate the large energy splitting that is observed between states of identical spin but opposite parities.We also provide a novel interpretation of the first excited state of ~(16)O and make predictions for the energies of 6~- states that have yet to be observed experimentally.
