英文摘要Background: Four strong single-particle bound levels with strikingly similar level spacings have recently been measured in Sn-131 and Sn-133. This similarity has not yet been addressed by a theoretical nuclear structure model. Information on these single-particle bound levels, as well as on resonant levels above the neutron capture threshold, is also needed to determine neutron capture cross sections-and corresponding capture reaction rates-on Sn-130,Sn-132. The Sn-130(n,gamma) rate was shown in a recent sensitivity study to significantly impact the synthesis of heavy elements in the r-process in supernovae. Purpose: Understand the structure of bound and resonant levels in Sn-131,Sn-133, and determine if the densities of unbound resonant levels are sufficiently high to warrant statistical model treatments of neutron capture on Sn-130,Sn-132. Method: Single-particle bound and resonant levels for Sn-131,Sn-133 are self-consistently calculated by the analytical continuation of the coupling constant (ACCC) method based on a relativistic mean field (RMF) theory with BCS approximation. Results: We obtain four strong single-particle bound levels in both Sn-131,Sn-133 with an ordering that agrees with experiments and spacings that, while differing from experiment, are consistent between the Sn isotopes. We also find at most one single-particle level in the effective energy range for neutron captures in the r-process. Conclusions: Our RMF + ACCC + BCS model successfully reproduces observed single-particle bound levels in (131,13)3Sn and self-consistently predicts single-particle resonant levels with densities too low for widely used traditional statistical model treatments of neutron capture cross sections on Sn-130,Sn-132 employing Fermi gas level density formulations.
