Isoscalar high-energy octupole resonance in /sup 92/Zr in inelastic electron scattering

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The giant-resonance region in /sup 92/Zr has been studied by inelastic electron scattering of the effective momentum transfer range 0.65< or =q/sub eff/< or =1.18 fm/sup -1/. The high-energy octupole resonance was identified at E/sub x/ = 25.1 +- 0.3 MeV with a width of 6.3 +- 0.3 MeV exhausting 39 +- 4% of the T = 0 E3 energy weighted sum rule. This result is in good agreement with a recent (/sup 3/He, /sup 3/He') result and the recent random-phase approximation calculations, and its strength is inconsistent with the trend of low strength of the high-energy octupole resonances observed by inelastic proton scattering.
