The use of Ixaru's method in locating the poles of the S-matrix in strictly finite-range potentials

Energies of the S-matrix poles are calculated by solving the radial Schroedinger equation numerically by using Ixaru's CPM(2) method. The trajectories of the poles in the complex wave number plane are determined for two nuclear potentials that are zero beyond finite distances. These are the Woods-Saxon form with cutoff and the Salamon-Vertse potential, which goes to zero smoothly at a finite distance. Properties of the trajectories are analyzed for real and complex values of the depths of the corresponding potentials.

Trajectories of S-matrix poles in a new finite-range potential

The trajectories of S-matrix poles are calculated in the finite-range phenomenological potential introduced recently by Salamon and Vertse [Phys. Rev. C 77, 037302 (2008)] (SV). The potential is similar to a Woods-Saxon (WS) interaction, but it is exactly zero beyond a radius, without any cutoff. The trajectories of the resonance poles in this SV potential are compared to the corresponding trajectories in a cutoff WS potential for l>0. The dependence on the cutoff radius is demonstrated. The starting points of the trajectories turn out to be related to the average ranges of the two terms in the SV potential.

New method for calculating shell correction

A new method is presented for the calculation of the shell correction with the inclusion of the continuum part of the spectrum. The smoothing function used has a finite energy range in contrast to the Gaussian shape of the Strutinski method. The new method is especially useful for light nuclei where the generalized Strutinski procedure cannot be applied.
