本文回顾了基于协变密度泛函理论研究原子核链式α结团结构及其动力学的现状.协变密度泛函理论以核子为基本自由度,可以自洽地给出具有α结团现象的原子核链式结团结构.结合推转平均场方法,相关研究揭示了碳同位素链式结团结构中自旋和同位旋的相干效应.随着转动频率的增加,中子的σ轨道(平行于对称轴的轨道)的能量在科氏力作用下降低,进而被价中子占据,预示着链式结构更容易在丰中子原子核的高角动量态中发现.类似的现象同样出现在丰质子的3α和4α链式结团结构中,并且价质子能在更低的角动量下占据质子的σ轨道.三维格点空间的协变密度泛函理论研究表明:转动频率在2.0-3.5MeV区间内,12C中的链式结团结构是位能面上的极小,表现出对弯曲运动和裂变的稳定性.进一步,含时协变密度泛函理论给出了4He+8Be和4He+10Be共振散射形成12C和14C链式结团结构的动力学过程,并发现价中子的动力学同位旋效应减缓了结团的纵向振荡,使得形成的14C链式结团结构有更长的寿命.
Recent progress in the structure and dynamics of nuclear linear-chain α clusters within the framework of covariant density functional theory is reviewed.The covariant density functional theory does not a priori assume the existence of α clusters and provides a microscopic and self-consistent description of the corresponding linear-chain cluster structure.By combin-ing the covariant density functional theory with the cranking model,the coherent effects of nuclear spin and isospin on the linear-chain cluster structure of carbon isotopes are revealed.Owing to the effects of the Coriolis term in the cranking covariant density functional theory,σ orbitals show a reduction in energy with the rotational frequency and are occupied by valence neutrons,indicating that the linear-chain cluster structures are more feasible in fast-rotating neutron-rich nu-clei.A similar mechanism exists for the 3a and 4α linear-chain cluster structures in proton-rich nuclei,wherein protons occupy σ orbitals at lower angular momenta than those observed for neutrons.Based on the calculations of the covari-ant density functional theory in a three-dimensional lattice space,the linear-chain cluster configuration in 12C is shown as a state with the minimum energy on the potential energy surface for rotational frequencies of 2.0-3.5 MeV,thereby demonstrating the stability of the linear-chain cluster structure against nuclear bending motion and fission.Furthermore,the development of the time-dependent covariant density functional theory enables the dynamical study of the linear-chain cluster structure.Investigations of the microscopic dynamics of the linear-chain cluster states for 12C and 14C isotopes in the reactions 4He+8Be and 4He+10Be show that the dynamical isospin effects by the valence neutrons impede the longitudinal oscillations of clusters,thereby prolonging the lifetime of the linear-chain cluster states.
