Title: delta. isobars in finite nuclei and nuclear matter

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

Random phase approximation calculations using a microscopic residual interaction (G matrix) are performed for /sup 16/O and /sup 12/C. The influence of ..delta.. isobars on isovector magnetic states is investigated and found to be small since many-body renormalization effects for the coupling of ph to ..delta..h states (g/sub NDelta//sup prime/) are considerably smaller in finite nuclei than in nuclear matter. Energies of isovector states and collective isoscalar states are described reasonably well. The electromagnetic transition strength is in general overestimated for both magnetic and electric transitions.
