Abstract

The effect of the right-left asymmetry is considered in the predicted earlier electric dipole radiation from fission fragments arising due to the Strutinski-Denisov induced polarisation mechanism. The magnitude of the asymmetry parameter is on the level of 10^-3. That is in agreement with the recent experimental data on the radiative ROT effect in ^{235}U fission induced by cold polarised neutrons.

\textit{Ab initio} no-core shell model calculations of the electric dipole polarizabilities and photoabsorption cross sections of the $A=3$ mirror nuclei

We present \textit{ab initio} no-core shell-model calculations of the electric dipole ($E1$) polarizabilities and photoabsorption cross sections of the $A=3$ mirror nuclei $^3$H and $^3$He using the Daejeon16 nucleon-nucleon interaction. The polarizabilities are obtained by direct summation over discretized continuum states in the harmonic-oscillator basis, while the same spectral information is used to reconstruct the cross sections. This work provides the first extension of the approach from the spin-zero $^4$He to nonzero-spin nuclei by calculating the $1/2^-$ and $3/2^-$ final-state contributions separately and demonstrating their model-space convergence. In both nuclei, the $3/2^-$ contribution is approximately twice the $1/2^-$ contribution. After quantifying finite-basis and excitation-energy-truncation uncertainties, we identify a clear difference between the mirror polarizabilities, induced entirely by the Coulomb interaction because the Daejeon16 interaction is isospin symmetric. The reconstructed cross sections remain stable under variations of the inversion parameters of the Lorentz integral transform and exhibit the same angular-momentum hierarchy. These results extend the discretized-continuum approach to integrated and energy-resolved $E1$ observables in nonzero-spin nuclei with multiple final-state angular momenta.

Anisotropic spin hydrodynamics in a magnetized medium: entropy-current formulation and minimal linear modes

We formulate anisotropic relativistic spin hydrodynamics in a parity-even magnetized medium using an Israel--Stewart entropy-current construction. Treating the magnetic field at leading order in the gradient expansion reduces the rotational symmetry to $SO(2)$ and separates spin susceptibilities and dissipative transport into longitudinal, transverse, and mixed channels. A restricted quadratic entropy current yields transient equations for the retained dissipative stresses and spin fluxes. We analyze a minimal linear closure around an unpolarized homogeneous equilibrium, retaining dynamical magnetic-flux perturbations but no explicit spin-magnetization coupling; spin and magnetic fluctuations mix through the fluid variables. Infrared coefficient equations and ultraviolet characteristic expansions organize the magnetosonic and Alfvén-like spectra together with spectator spin-flux poles. The first-order truncation exhibits unstable boost-sector poles and superlinear large-wave-number branches, interpreted as diagnostics of the truncated equations rather than microscopic dispersion predictions. For the baseline parameters, finite relaxation times yield asymptotically linear propagation branches and finite relaxation poles, with no growing modes found on the sampled grid. The characteristic speeds depend nonmonotonically on spin transport and provide necessary light-cone diagnostics, without establishing general stability or strong hyperbolicity.

Can Coulomb breakup of $N=Z$ clustered nuclei constrain capture cross sections? Analyzing the $α(d,γ){}^{6}\mathrm{Li}$ case

In nuclear astrophysics, it is fundamental to measure the cross section of radiative-capture reactions involving charged particles at low energy. However, this endeavor is difficult. Coulomb breakup of nuclei on heavy targets has been proposed as an indirect method to infer the low-energy cross sections, because this reaction corresponds to the time reversed process of radiative capture. Two Coulomb breakup experiments aiming to infer the $α(d,γ){}^{6}\mathrm{Li}$ radiative-capture cross section have been performed at 26 MeV/nucleon and 150 MeV/nucleon. Within a fully dynamical reaction model, we report here on a new theoretical analysis of these reactions. Our analysis indicates that the breakup of ${}^6\mathrm{Li}$ onto ${}^{208}\mathrm{Pb}$ is nuclear dominated at forward angles because Coulomb breakup is suppressed due to the $N=Z$ cluster structure of ${}^6\mathrm{Li}$. Our analysis also suggests that the reaction is characterized by marked Coulomb-nuclear interferences. Moreover, we find that higher-order effects considerably increase the breakup cross section at low energies. Consequently, extracting radiative capture cross sections from the breakup reaction data in this case is extremely challenging. We suggest that the forward Coulomb breakup suppression is a general feature of collision processes involving $N=Z$ clustered nuclei. Our findings underscore the importance of advancing alternative indirect methods for nuclear reactions in astrophysics such as electron-induced dissociation.
