Abstract:

The dipole electric (E1) and magnetic (M1) strengths in strongly deformed 156Gd are investigated within a fully self-consistent Quasiparticle Random Phase Approximation (QRPA) with Skyrme forces SVbas, SG2 and SLy6. We consider, on the same theoretical footing, pygmy dipole resonance and isovector giant dipole resonance in E1 channel and orbital-scissors and spin-flip resonances in M1 channel. Besides E1 toroidal and low-energy M1 spin-flip excitations are inspected. The calculations show a good agreement with available experimental data for exception of the recent NRF measurements
(M. Tamkas et al., Nucl. Phys. A 987, 79 (2019) where, in contradiction with our calculations and previous (p,p’) data, almost no M1 strength was observed at 4 – 6 MeV.
