How to achieve high-fidelity NCPT remains so far challenging. Here, we investigate the complete population transfer of nuclear states. We first consider a cyclic three-level system, based on the mixed-state inverse engineering scheme by adding additional laser fields in an open three-level nuclear system with spontaneous emission. We find the amplitude of the additional field is related to the ratio of the pump and Stokes field amplitudes. As long as an appropriate additional field is selected, complete transfer can be achieved even when the intensities of the pump and Stokes fields are exceedingly low. The transfer efficiency exhibits excellent robustness with respect to laser peak intensity and pulse delay. We demonstrate the effectiveness through examples such as <math xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mmultiscripts><mi>Th</mi><mprescripts></mprescripts><none></none><mn>229</mn></mmultiscripts><mo>,</mo><mo> </mo><mmultiscripts><mi>Ra</mi><mprescripts></mprescripts><none></none><mn>223</mn></mmultiscripts><mo>,</mo><mo> </mo><mmultiscripts><mi>Cd</mi><mprescripts></mprescripts><none></none><mn>113</mn></mmultiscripts></math>, and <math xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mmultiscripts><mi>Tc</mi><mprescripts></mprescripts><none></none><mn>97</mn></mmultiscripts></math>, which have a long lifetime excited state, as well as <math xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mmultiscripts><mi>Re</mi><mprescripts></mprescripts><none></none><mn>187</mn></mmultiscripts><mo>,</mo><mo> </mo><mmultiscripts><mi>Yb</mi><mprescripts></mprescripts><none></none><mn>172</mn></mmultiscripts><mo>,</mo><mo> </mo><mmultiscripts><mi>Er</mi><mprescripts></mprescripts><none></none><mn>168</mn></mmultiscripts></math>, and <math xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mmultiscripts><mi>Gd</mi><mprescripts></mprescripts><none></none><mn>154</mn></mmultiscripts></math> with a short lifetime excited state.

In order to parametrize the WIMP-nucleon interaction, the chiral effective field theory approach is used. Considering only interactions invariant under parity, charge conjugation, and time reversal, we examine five interaction types: scalar, pseudoscalar, vector, axial, and tensor. Scattering amplitudes between two nucleons and a WIMP are determined up to second order of chiral perturbation theory. We apply this program to calculate the interaction rate as a function of the WIMP mass and of the magnitude of the WIMP-quark coupling constants. From our study, we conclude that the scalar nuclear response functions is much greater than the others due to their large combination of low energy constants. We verify that the leading order contributions are dominant in these low energy processes. We also provide an estimate for the background due to atmospheric neutrinos.","PeriodicalId":20122,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review C","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142186727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Second, we perform a comparison between two- and three-body models that both describe the dynamics of the reaction within the DWBA. The predictions from these two models are similar and generally agree with the available data, suggesting that one-step DWBA is sufficient to describe the reaction process. Only at a beam energy of 25 MeV are there possible signs that a one-step assumption is not fully correct. This work provides motivation for the quantification of uncertainties associated with the transition operator in three-body model. It also suggests that further constraint of the optical potential parameters is needed for increased model precision.","PeriodicalId":20122,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review C","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142186728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
