Abstract

The experimental measurement data on the fine structure of beta-decay strength function Sβ(E) in spherical, transitional, and deformed nuclei are analyzed. Modern high-resolution nuclear spectroscopy methods made it possible to identify the splitting of peaks in Sβ(E) for deformed nuclei. By analogy with splitting of the peak of E1 giant dipole resonance (GDR) in deformed nuclei, the peaks in Sβ(E) are split into two components from the axial nuclear deformation. In this report, the fine structure of Sβ(E) is discussed. Splitting of the peaks connected with the oscillations of neutrons against protons (E1GDR), of proton holes against neutrons (peaks in Sβ(E) of β+/EC-decay), and of protons against neutron holes (peaks in Sβ(E) of β–-decay) is discussed.
