  3. Quenching problem of GT strength (p,n) reaction GT sum rule (model independent) K. Ikeda PL 3, 271 (1963) Only 50%strength has been observed in experiment. Where is missing strength? Measured area Δ-h? ~50% B(GT) 2p2h? 50 300 Ex. (MeV) 0 25 ・Δ-h excitation (excitation of quark) ~300 MeV IV only M. Ichimura, H. Sakai and T. Wakasa; PPNP. 56, 446 (2006). ・2p2h excitation (tensor force effect) ~50MeV IS / IV

Crawley PRC(1989): (p,p’) on sd-shell nuclei

  5. Quenching of spin strength 1+ 1+ T=1 1+ T=0 0+ T=0 12C 12B (12N) Quenching factor (sd-shell): Experiment / Theory of transition Nonquench! (*) Taken from G.M. Crawley PRC(1989): (p,p’) on sd-shell nuclei

  6. Nonquenched IS spin-M1 strength was found by the present work. - Is it consistent with Δ-h excitation? - Is it consistent with 2p2h excitation? No Yes Quenching factor (sd-shell): Experiment / Theory of transition Nonquench! (*) Taken from G.M. Crawley PRC(1989): (p,p’) on sd-shell nuclei

  14. Unit cross section (UCS) ・ Conversion factor from cross-section to squared nuclear matrix element (SNME) ・ Calibration from β andγ-decay measurements (assuming the isospin symmetry) (T= IS or IV) UCS Kinematical factor SNME (To be obtained) ・ Mass dependence established in GT study T.N. Taddeucci, NPA469 (1987).

  17. Consistency with the IS Magnetic Moment and the effective g-factor Effective g-factors were determined to reproduce <S>. The factors come from the g-factors in free space. Spin-matrix Data taken from B.A. Brown, NPA (1987). Magnetic moment Spin-matrix <S> Quenching is dominant at the shell-edge.

Spin-matrix Data taken from B.A. Brown, NPA (1987). Magnetic moment Spin-matrix <S> Quenching is dominant at the shell-edge. Quenching is suppressed at the mid-shell.

  19. What does the nonquench suggest? Spin alignment in the ground state Suggesting 2p2h excitation due to tensor force

  20. Spin alignment in the ground state : total spin operator in a nucleus : spin alighment in the g.s. Nonquench suggests

  21. How to deduce <Sp・Sn>? IS : in-phase transition for p and n IV : out-phase transition for p and n Sum of IS : (Closure approx.) Sum of IV : Subtraction of IS-sum minus IV-sum

  22. <Sp・Sn>values USD with eff. g-factors by Arima, Towner, Brown

  23. <Sp・Sn>values Experimental results suggest spin alignment.

  24. <Sp・Sn>values Shell-model : USD interaction Correlated Gaussian Meth.: W. Horiuchi AV8’: 0.135 (stronger tensor) G3RS: 0.109 (weaker tensor) Minnesota: -0.020 (no tensor)

  25. <Sp・Sn>values Shell-model : USD interaction Correlated Gaussian Meth.: W. Horiuchi No-Core Shell-model: P. Navratil

  26. Spin alignment is supported by state-of-the-art calc. with tensor force.

  27. Open questions • Experimental results are up to 16 MeV. • No experimental data at high Ex. • What makes dependence of quench/nonquench at sd-shell ? • Large quench for shell-edge nuclei • Nonquench for mid-shell nuclei

  28. Summary • Non-quenching was observed in the IS spin-M1 transitions. • Introducing <Sp・Sn>, the present result suggests that the quenching in spin transitions are due to 2p2h excitations preliminary resulting from tensor interaction. • State-of-the-art calculations support the new interpretation of the spin alignment in the g.s. Thanks for the attention.
