We introduce the effective action for the particle-number and nonlocal pairing densities and demonstrate that the Hohenberg-Kohn theorem for superfluid systems is established in terms of the effective action. The flow equation for the effective action is then derived, where the flow parameter runs from $0$ to $1$, corresponding to the non-interacting and interacting systems. From the flow equation and the variational equation that the equilibrium density satisfies, we obtain the exact expression for the Kohn-Sham potential generalized to including the pairing potentials. The resultant Kohn-Sham potential has a nice feature that it expresses the microscopic formulae of the external, Hartree, pairing, and exchange-correlation terms, separately. It is shown that our Kohn-Sham potential gives the ground-state energy of the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory by neglecting the correlations. An advantage of our exact formalism lies in the fact that it provides ways to systematically improve the correlation part.","PeriodicalId":8463,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Nuclear Theory","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85801318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A charge-exchange analog, however, has been poorly studied in comparison with the spin (magnetic) dipole resonance (SDR). Purpose: I investigate the role of deformation on the charge-exchange dipole excitations and explore the generic features as an isovector mode of excitation. Methods: The nuclear energy-density functional method is employed for calculating the response functions based on the Skyrme--Kohn--Sham--Bogoliubov method and the proton-neuton quasiparticle-random-phase approximation. Results: The deformation splitting into $K=0$ and $K=pm 1$ components occurs in the charge-changing channels and is proportional to the magnitude of deformation as is well known for the GDR. For the SDR, however, a simple assertion based on geometry of a nucleus cannot be applied for explaining the vibrational frequencies of each $K$-component. A qualitative argument on the strength distributions for each component is given based on the non-energy-weighted sum rules taking nuclear deformation into account. The concentration of the electric dipole strengths in low energy and below the giant resonance is found in neutron-rich unstable nuclei. Conclusions: The deformation splitting occurs generically for the charge-exchange dipole excitions as in the neutral channel. The analog pygmy dipole resonance can emerge in deformed neutron-rich nuclei as well as in spherical systems.","PeriodicalId":8463,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Nuclear Theory","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85009771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In practice, we have created a two-step procedure which is fitted to the same data base: in the first step we perform an energy independent amplitude analysis where continuity is achieved by constraining the amplitude phase, and the result of this first step is then taken as a constraint for the second step where a constrained, energy independent, truncated partial-wave analysis is done. The method is tested on the world collection of data for $eta$ photoproduction, and the obtained fit-results are very good. The sensitivity to different possible choices of amplitude phase is investigated and it is demonstrated that the present data base is insensitive to notable phase changes, due to an incomplete database. New measurements are recommended to remedy the problem.","PeriodicalId":8463,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Nuclear Theory","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88216366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, the dependence of the HBT radii on the transverse pair momentum $K_T$ and the system charged multiplicity $dN_{mathrm{ch}}/deta$ may reflect the mechanisms driving collective behavior in small systems. This paper argues that certain features observed in the multiplicity dependence of the HBT radii can be naturally understood if small systems evolve hydrodynamically at high-multiplicity. This study thus establishes a baseline for the multiplicity dependence of HBT in hydrodynamics which may prove useful in discriminating between competing models of collectivity in nuclear collisions.","PeriodicalId":8463,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Nuclear Theory","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90684569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
