Ab initio calculation of the decay from to a resonance
Résumé
The exotic -delayed proton emission is calculated in from first principles using chiral two- and three-nucleon forces. To investigate the unexpectedly large branching ratio measured in Ayyad et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 123, 082501 (2019)], we calculate the proposed proton resonance in using the no-core shell model with continuum. This calculation helps to address whether this enhancement is caused by unknown dark decay modes or an unobserved proton resonance. We report a branching ratio of , suggesting that its unexpectedly large value is caused by an unobserved proton resonance in .
