Correlations in Nuclei: Self-Consistent Treatment and the BAGEL Approach
An approach is presented which allows a self-consistent description of the
fragmentation of single-particle strength for nucleons in finite nuclei
employing the Greens function formalism. The self-energy to be considered in
the Dyson equation for the single-particle Greens function contains all terms
of first (Hartree-Fock) and second order in the residual interaction. It is
demonstrated that the fragmentation of the single-particle strength originating
from the terms of second order can efficiently be described in terms of the
so-called BAGEL approximation. Employing this approximation the self-energy can
be evaluated in a self-consistent way, i.e. the correlations contained in the
Greens function are taken into account for the evaluation of the self-energy.
As an example this scheme is applied to the nucleus , using a realistic
nucleon nucleon interaction. The effects of the correlations on the occupation
probabilities and the binding energy are evaluated.Comment: 9 page
124-Color Super-resolution Imaging by Engineering DNA-PAINT Blinking Kinetics
Optical super-resolution techniques reach unprecedented spatial resolution down to a few nanometers. However, efficient multiplexing strategies for the simultaneous detection of hundreds of molecular species are still elusive. Here, we introduce an entirely new approach to multiplexed super-resolution microscopy by designing the blinking behavior of targets with engineered binding frequency and duration in DNA-PAINT. We assay this kinetic barcoding approach in silico and in vitro using DNA origami structures, show the applicability for multiplexed RNA and protein detection in cells, and finally experimentally demonstrate 124-plex super-resolution imaging within minutes.We thank Martin Spitaler and the imaging facility of the MPI of Biochemistry for confocal imaging support
First measurements of the ^16O(e,e'pn)^14N reaction
This paper reports on the first measurement of the ^16O(e,e'pn)^14N reaction.
Data were measured in kinematics centred on a super-parallel geometry at energy
and momentum transfers of 215 MeV and 316 MeV/c. The experimental resolution
was sufficient to distinguish groups of states in the residual nucleus but not
good enough to separate individual states. The data show a strong dependence on
missing momentum and this dependence appears to be different for two groups of
states in the residual nucleus. Theoretical calculations of the reaction using
the Pavia code do not reproduce the shape or the magnitude of the data.Comment: 10 pages, 11 figures, 2 tables, Accepted for publication in EPJ

Long-Range Correlations in Closed Shell Nuclei
The effects of correlations on the bulk properties of nuclei are investigated
in large model spaces including up to 21 single-particle orbits. The evaluation
of the single-particle Green function is made feasible by means of the BAGEL
approximation. The spectral function for single-nucleon pick-up and removal is
investigated for the nuclei and . Special attention is paid
to the effects produced by correlations on the calculated ground state
properties of closed shell nuclei. It is observed that correlations beyond the
Brueckner Hartree Fock approximation tend to improve the results obtained using
realistic nucleon nucleon interactions.Comment: 23 pages 4 figures not included, Report Tu-93-081
Quasi-free Compton Scattering and the Polarizabilities of the Neutron
Differential cross sections for quasi-free Compton scattering from the proton
and neutron bound in the deuteron have been measured using the Glasgow/Mainz
tagging spectrometer at the Mainz MAMI accelerator together with the Mainz 48
cm 64 cm NaI(Tl) photon detector and the G\"ottingen SENECA
recoil detector. The data cover photon energies ranging from 200 MeV to 400 MeV
at . Liquid deuterium and hydrogen targets
allowed direct comparison of free and quasi-free scattering from the proton.
The neutron detection efficiency of the SENECA detector was measured via the
reaction . The "free" proton Compton scattering cross
sections extracted from the bound proton data are in reasonable agreement with
those for the free proton which gives confidence in the method to extract the
differential cross section for free scattering from quasi-free data.
Differential cross sections on the free neutron have been extracted and the
difference of the electromagnetic polarizabilities of the neutron have been
obtained to be
in units . In combination with the polarizability sum deduced from photoabsorption data, the neutron electric and
magnetic polarizabilities, and
are obtained. The backward spin polarizability of the neutron was determined to
be
Compton Scattering by the Proton using a Large-Acceptance Arrangement
Compton scattering by the proton has been measured using the tagged-photon
facility at MAMI (Mainz) and the large-acceptance arrangement LARA. The new
data are interpreted in terms of dispersion theory based on the SAID-SM99K
parameterization of photo-meson amplitudes. It is found that two-pion exchange
in the t-channel is needed for a description of the data in the second
resonance region. The data are well represented if this channel is modeled by a
single pole with mass parameter m(sigma)=600 MeV. The asymptotic part of the
spin dependent amplitude is found to be well represented by pi-0-exchange in
the t-channel. A backward spin-polarizability of
gamma(pi)=(-37.1+-0.6(stat+syst)+-3.0(model))x10^{-4}fm^4 has been determined
from data of the first resonance region below 455 MeV. This value is in a good
agreement with predictions of dispersion relations and chiral pertubation
theory. From a subset of data between 280 and 360 MeV the resonance
pion-photoproduction amplitudes were evaluated leading to a E2/M1 multipole
ratio of the p-to-Delta radiative transition of EMR(340
MeV)=(-1.7+-0.4(stat+syst)+-0.2(model))%. It was found that this number is
dependent on the parameterization of photo-meson amplitudes. With the MAID2K
parameterization an E2/M1 multipole ratio of EMR(340
MeV)=(-2.0+-0.4(stat+syst)+-0.2(model))% is obtained
Knockout of proton-neutron pairs from O with electromagnetic probes
After recent improvements to the Pavia model of two-nucleon knockout from
O with electromagnetic probes the calculated cross sections are compared
to experimental data from such reactions. Comparison with data from a
measurement of the O(e,epn) reaction show much better agreement
between experiment and theory than was previously observed. In a comparison
with recent data from a measurement of the O(,pn) reaction the
model over-predicts the measured cross section at low missing momentum.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
