Summary and conclusions
Single particle dynamics: the relevant energy scale is Sn
• Stable nuclei: Sn~10MeV
→ static MF in the p-h channel + paring for the p-p correlations
• Weakly-bound n-rich nuclei: Sn~few keV-MeV→ pairing correlations in the p-h channel are also important

Effects of the dynamical correlations (particle-hole coupling) due to the pairing field• The widths of the hole distributions (E<0) are due to the bound-continuum coupling
• The deeper-lying s-wave levels are coupled more efficiently to the particle continuum
• The 5/2+ d-wave strength is lowered into the bound state sector (intruder component)
• A small amount of 1/2+ and 3/2+ strengths is above the p½ peak
• Dramatic change in dynamics at the n-dripline: the level ordering is not determined by simple MF

Comparison: full HFB Gorkov-pairing – bare MF calculations• Pairing gives an attractive self-energy in the p-wave channels

Continuum spectroscopy of Continuum spectroscopy of 1010Li by transfer reactionsLi by transfer reactions
Transfer reactionswell established tool for structural studies of bound and exotic nuclei Weakly-bound final state: prevalence of small momentum components the cross section maximum is at much lower incident energies
H. Lenske and G. Schrieder, Eur. Phys. J 2 (1998) 41
Single-nucleon transfer reactionsas a tool for continuum spectroscopy in exotic nuclei Study of the low-energy s.p. resonances in unbound systems also
Method based on a DWBA approach. Main innovations:to treat the case of unbound final states andto calculate the double differential cross section for one-neutron transfer The model is applied to the 9Li(d,p)10Li reaction to explore the structure of 10Li
10Li is neutron-unbound by 25 ± 15 keV
Why Why 1010Li?Li? Crucial for the comprehension of the structure of 11Li as a three body system
(11Li is a Borromean 2-n-halo nucleus) Information on the n-9Li interaction, important for the theoretical models of 11Li
Interest in the structure of 10Li itself: low-lying states are not yet well known• Ground state: p-wave or s1/2 virtual state at the n+9Li threshold?• 4 states are expected at low energy with J = 1−, 2− and 1+, 2+
(neutron in 2s1/2 or 1p1/2 unpaired 1p3/2 proton of the 9Li core)
• Two resonances seen at Ex ~ 250 and 500 keV; several resonances at higher Ex

• p1/2 resonance at ER = 400 keV Mainly a potential resonance
• p3/2 resonance at ER = 850 keV Coupled-channels pairing resonance
New feature essential to describe dataobtained by adding a polarization repulsive surface potential (acting in E~250keV around ER) to reproduce the full HFB Gorkov-pairing results
• The theoretical results include the experimental energy resolution FWHM~250keV • Good agreement with data (shape and resonances position)

• Good agreement with data (no scaling)
• The p1/2-wave is dominant
• As expected, transfer is favoured at low incident energies:
calculations @ 20 AMeV (MSU exp.) → transfer at ER(p1/2) is lowered by a factor of 26
• The measurement of angular distributions is important to identify the 10Li states (ℓ values)

SummarySummaryFano resonances can be expected to be of particular importance for the continuum dynamics of exotic nuclei
The coupled channels model extends the QPC into the continuum: the interference between open 1-QP and closed 3-QP ch. gives sharp and asymmetric resonances (→V13)
The calculations performed for 15C, 17C, 19C show increased effects of correlations
Exp. evidence of DCP correlations in the 15C spectra, qualitatively reproduced by theoretical calculations, and in the 11Be and 19O spectra
Transfer reactions are a powerful tool to do continuum spectroscopy in exotic nuclei
Innovations of the DWBA approach: to treat unbound final states and to calculate d2/ddE
Calculations performed for the d(9Li,10Li)p reaction at ELi = 2.36 and 20 AMeV10Li continuum: p1/2-resonance at ~400 keV and p3/2-pairing resonance at ~850 keV
in very good agreement with experimental data
Same behaviour of elastic and transfer: same structure S(E)
Correlation: spectral distributions ↔ n-9Li interaction (sensitivity to the halo tail)
Analogy: Configuration Mixing due to15C continuum = n+14C, BSEC = n+14C* core polarization (DCP)10Li continuum = n+9Li unbound, (particle-hole) pairing correlations (MF-level)
☺ Thank you for your attention ☺
Pairing in unbound nuclear states explored in terms of an extended MF approach
Paring effects may introduce pronounced structures and shifts in the low-energy continuum of all the channels
Configuration mixing acts at the MF level, but mechanisms similar to the mixing due to dynamical correlations
