Description

New energy-, spin- and parity-dependent nuclear level densities based on the microscopic combinatorial model are proposed for practical applications. The combinatorial model includes a detailed microscopic calculation of the intrinsic state density and of the rotational enhancement factor, but a phenomenological treatment of the vibrational effect. The vibrational description has been improved using a boson partition function to construct phonons' state densities which are then folded in with the incoherent particle-hole densities. The present model is shown to predict the experimental s-wave neutron resonance spacings with a degree of accuracy comparable to that of the best global models available
