2. Deexcitation energy as a good probe to DDSE

Difficult neutron radius measurement for Pb208 at JLab

A~190

Ground state: Oblate

Superdeformed Secondary minimum(SSM): Prolate

Collective excitations: isovector changes

Deexcitation energy

• Difference of binding energies between the g.s. & SSM

• Determined by the difference of potentials

• Influenced by the isovector potential and the DDSE

FSUGold

Odd-odd Au isotopes

Almost independent of pairing interactions

Properties of nucleons and mesons in medium should be constrained by the chiral symmetry and its breaking.Symmetry energy is dominated by the isovector mesons.A good candidate is the Walecka model with Brown-Rho scaling: Simple but with chiral limit

Summary

• We proposed a few theoretically sensitive probes to the DDSE.

• Deexcitation energy of SSM is a good probe to the DDSE.

• Some constraints from chirality were studied.

• CSB & the DDSE, the symmetry energy is largely softened at high densities.
