  2. Plan • What is thermal pairing? • Effect of thermal pairing on the GDR width at low T • First experimental evidence of pairing reentrance a finite nucleus • Damping of GDR at finite T and J • Viscosity of hot nuclei • Conclusions

  3. Thermal pairing In finite systems such as nuclei large thermal fluctuations smooth out the sharp superfluid-normal (SN) phase transition. As the result, pairing does not collapse at Tc≈ 0.57Δ(T=0), but remains finite even at T >> Tc. This has been shownwithin the following approaches: Fluctuations of pairing field (Moretto, 1972) SPA (Dang, Ring, Rossignoli, 1992) SM (Zelevinsky, Alex Brown, Frazier, Horoi, 1996) MBCS (Dang, Zelevinsky, 2001) FTBCS1 (Dang, Hung, 2008) Exact solutions of pairing problem embedded in the GCE, CE, and MCE (Dang, Hung, 2009) (8th- 10th Spring seminars, 2004, 2007, and 2010)

  4. Decaying scheme of a highly-excited compound nucleus 1 2 3 1) GDR photons are emitted in the early stage in competition with neutrons. 2) When E* becomes lower than Bnslower γ transitions take place. 3) Most of the angular momentum is carried off at the final stage of the decay by quadrupole radiation.

  14. Pairing reentrance Pairing reentrance N=10 M  0

  15. Discovery of reentrance of superconductivity in metal (2005) Uranium rhodium germanium (URhGe) becomes superconducting in a strong magnetic field. The sample at Grenoble High Magnetic Field Laboratory (CNRS) was cooled down below its critical temperature (290 mK) and the magnetic field was raised to 2 T. The sample's superconducting properties vanished. However, when the magnetic field was raised to 8 T, the superconducting behavior reappeared. The critical temperature at that field strength increased to about 400 mK.The sample retained the superconducting state until 13 T. Lévy, Sheikin, Grenier, Huxley, Science 309 (2005) 1343.

  16. Enhancement of nuclear level densities at finite T and J 104Pd* J = 20ħ Experiments were carried out at BARC (2006 – 2010) at energies of carbon beam 40 – 45 MeV. The proton spectra in coincidence with a γ-ray multiplicity detector array show broad structures, which can be fitted using the statistical model by multiplying the phenomenological nuclear level densities by an enhancement function dependent on excitation energy and angular momentum (Datar, Mitra, and Chakrabarty). Is it an evidence of pairing reentrance in a finite nucleus?

  21. Shear viscosity h Unit: 1 P (poise) = 0.1 Pa.s = 1 g / (cm.s) 1cP = 1mPa.s = 0.001 Pa.s named after Poiseuille (1797 – 1869) f = 1/h is called fluidity

  22. Lower bound forh/s A. Starinets D.T. Son P. Kovtun (Oxford U) (U. Chicago) (U. Victoria) Using string theory, P. Kovtun, D.T. Son and A.Starinets(KSS), PRL 94 (2005) 111601, conjectured that the value is the universal lower bound for all fluids.

  23. Quark-Gluon Plasma Experimental data from the RHIC (BNL) and LHC (CERN) have revealed that the matter formed in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion (Au-Au with √sNN= 200 GeV, T>Tc~175 MeV, and Pb-Pb with √sNN= 5.4 TeV) collisions is a nearly perfect liquid with extremely low specific viscosity: /s = (1.5 ~ 2.5) KSS.

  24. h / s in Hot Nuclei One of fundamental explanations of giant resonance damping remains the friction term (viscosity) of neutron and proton fluids → Viscosity can be extracted from the GR. I)Calculations using FLDM: N. Auerbach & S. Shlomo PRL 103 (2009) 172501 (Texas A&M U) (Tel-Aviv U) They found h/s = (4-19) KSS for heavy, (2.5 – 12.5) KSS for light nuclei. Shortcomings: 1) the GDR width does not agree with experimental systematic at high T; 2) The entropy S = 2aT with constant level density parameter a; 3) Large uncertainties.

  25. NDD, PRC 84 (2011) 034309 Derivation of h/s from the GDR width and energy at T≠0 By using the Green-Kubo relation, which expresses h in terms of correlation functions of shear stress tensors: and the fluctuation-dissipation theorem, one obtains with This exact formula relates the linear transport coefficient of any system (in a non-equilibrium or local thermodynamic equilibrium) to fluctuations in global thermodynamic equilibrium (such as thermal noise of electric and heat currents, collective vibrations, etc.)

  26. Shear viscosity of hot nuclei A) By using Breit-Wigner distribution: B) By using Lorentz distribution: Entropy density Fermions Bosons Nj= 2j+1 , (upper sign) Nj= 1 , (lower sign)

  27. Conclusions 1. The PDM prediction that thermal pairing compensates the smoothing of Fermi surface as T increases, leading to a nealy constant GDR width at T ≤ 1 MeV, has been confirmed by all latest experimental data. 2. The PDM successfully describes the GDR in hot rotating nuclei as well. 3. The enhancement of level densities found in 104Pd at finite T and J is the first experimental evidence of pairing reentrance phenomenon in a finite nucleus. 4. 104Pd is predicted to change shape from prolate at J ≤ 30ħ to oblate at higher J. 5. The specific shear viscosity of hot nuclei is (1.3 – 4) KSS at T = 5 MeV, that is almost the same as that of QGP, (1.5 – 2.5) KSS at T~ 175 MeV.
