Local alpha-removal strength in the mean-field approximation

Abstract

The local alpha strength is proposed to quantify the possibility to form an alpha particle at a specific location inside the nucleus. It also provides the strength of ground and excited states in the residual nuclei after the removal of the alpha particle. We use the Hartree-Fock-plus-BCS (HF+BCS) method in the calculation of the local alpha strengths for Sn isotopes. The local alpha strengths are easily calculable and the results are consistent with recent experimental data for Sn isotopes.
