Three-body continuum energy correlations in Borromean halo nuclei. III. Short-range external fields
Journal article, 2007

Energy correlations in transition from the bound state to the three-body continuum of Borromean halo nuclei are considered. A core+n+n three-body cluster model which reproduces the experimentally known properties of 6He and 11Li has been used to study the low-lying resonances and soft modes. An analysis of the correlated responses in 6He shows that in the case of the narrow 2+ resonance the transition energy correlations are the same as in the intrinsic correlated structure in 3->3 scattering. They differ significantly for wide second 2+ and first 1+ resonances, and also for the soft dipole and monopole modes, where due to the transition operators, the intertwinning of the ground state and the three-body continuum plays a significant role.
