Tóm tắt

We present a semi-classical approach to the dynamics of nuclear collective motions. We study a linearized version of the nuclear Vlasov equation, obtained from a phase-space representation of a meanfield theory, which corresponds to a semi-classical version of the RPA approach. Giant resonances are shown to be quite well described as scaling modes, which are equivalent to a lowest multipole (up tol max=2) distortion of the momentum distributions. We present detailed results for isoscalar-giant-quadrupole and isovector-giant-dipole modes. We discuss various sources of damping giving some suggestions for the study of the Landau damping in a nuclear system, in competition with explicit two-body collision terms.
