Gamow-Teller strength in the continuum

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)

We present the results of a decomposition of the angular distribution of the continuum observed in the /sup 90/Zr( p,n) reaction at 200 MeV into different angular momentum transfers. We found significant amounts of L = 0 strength over a wide range of excitation energies in the continuum, which sums up to more than half of the missing Gamow-Teller strength.
