Low-lying bound and resonance states in Λ61Ca and ΛΛ62Ca

Abstract

In this paper, the energy, and wavefunctions of the low-lying bound and resonance states of [Formula: see text]Ca and [Formula: see text]Ca are studied. For [Formula: see text]Ca we adopted [Formula: see text]Ca two-body cluster model while for [Formula: see text]Ca we adopted [Formula: see text]Ca three-body cluster model. Two models of potentials, namely SH: Hulthén type and WS: Woods–Saxon type potentials, each having a spin-orbit coupling term is chosen for the [Formula: see text]-nucleus pair while three-range Gaussian (TRG) Nijmegen hardcore and softcore potential models are chosen for [Formula: see text] pair. The resulting few-body (two- and three-body) Schrödinger equations are solved numerically to get the bound state energies and wavefunctions. For the three-body calculation, we used hyperspherical coordinates. The formalism of supersymmetric quantum mechanics is applied to construct a one-parameter family of isospectral potential to investigate the resonance states of the [Formula: see text]Ca ([Formula: see text]Ca) core-[Formula: see text] two-body system. To study the effect of replacement of the outer core valence nucleon(s) of [Formula: see text]Ca by [Formula: see text] hyperon(s), two- and three-body cluster model calculations for the bound states of [Formula: see text]Ca and [Formula: see text]Ca are also carried out using the same set of two-body potentials, as used for [Formula: see text]Ca and [Formula: see text]Ca respectively. And a clear enhancement in the one- and two-[Formula: see text] separation energies and a shrinking of the overall size of the nucleus is indicated. The computed results are compared with some of those found in the literature.
