E1 form factor and the existence of breathing mode at 80A/sup -1/3/ MeV in heavy nuclei

  • 1. Department of Physics and Chemistry, Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, California 93940

Description

(e,e') from the giant dipole resonance (GDR) in 140Ce verifies the macroscopic model by Myers et al., while ruling out the Steinwedel-Jensen model and, to a lesser extent the Goldhaber-Teller model. This result leads to discrepancies between (α,α') and (e,e') concerning the existence of a giant-monopole (breathing-mode) state, particularly if one considers the independent verification of the Meyers et al. model by the experimental A/sup -0.23/ energy dependence of the GDR
