Complete dipole response in 208Pb from high-resolution polarized proton scattering at 0∘⋆ — •Iryna Poltoratska — Institut für Kernphysik, Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany
In proton scattering at angles close to 0∘ one can selectively study dipole modes
which, apart from the isovector giant dipole resonance, are poorly
understood. Recent experimental progress at RCNP Osaka, Japan [1],
allows measurements with intermediate-energy polarized beams at very forward angles including 0∘
combined with high energy resolution of the order ΔE/E
≈8·10−5. This new experimental opportunity was
applied to study soft electric dipole modes such as Pygmy Dipole
Resonance (PDR) and the so-called toroidal mode. The preliminary
data analysis indicates that at very forward angles 1− states
are strongly excited via Coulomb interaction. The extracted
B(E1) transition strengths are in a good agreement with data
obtained from a nuclear resonance fluorescence experiment [2]. E1/M1 contributions are separated based on multipole decomposition of a cross section angular distributions and
utilizing spin-transfer observables.
