Rotational Damping and Compound Formation in Warm Rotating Nuclei
Abstract
The rotational damping width rot and the compound damping width comp are two fundamental quantities that characterize rapidly rotating compound nuclei having finite thermal excitation energy. A two-component structure in the strength function of consecutive E2 transitions reflects the two widths, and it causes characteristic features in the double and triple gamma-ray spectra. We discuss a new method to extract experimentally values of rot and comp. The first preliminary result of this method is presented.
