Damping of IVGDR - Fermi-liquid or Fermi-gas ?
Abstract
Description
Collisional relaxation rates of collective modes in nuclei are calculated using the Levinson equation for the reduced density matrix with a memory dependent collision term. Linearizing the collision integral two contribution have to be distinguished, the one from the quasiparticle energy and the one from occupation factors. The first one yields the known Landau formula of zero sound damping and the second one leads to the Fermi gas model of Ref.1 with the additional factor 3 in front of the frequencies. Adding both contribution we obtain a final relaxation rate for the Fermi liquid model. Calculations of the temperature dependence of the damping rates and of the shape evolution of IVGDR are in good agreement with the experiment and show only minor differences between both models.
