Strength of J(pi)=1(+) Gamow-Teller and isovector spin monopole transitions in double-beta-decay triplets

In this work we study systematically the energetics and intensity distributions of Gamow-Teller (GT ± )and isovector spin monopole (IVSM ± ) transitions from the ground states of the pairs ( 76 Ge, 76 Se), ( 82 Se, 82 Kr), ( 100 Mo, 100 Ru), ( 116 Cd, 116 Sn), ( 128 Te, 128 Xe), ( 130 Te, 130 Xe), and ( 136 Xe, 136 Ba), of double-beta-decay initial and final nuclei, to the J π = 1 + excited states of the intermediate odd-odd nuclei 76 As, 82 Br, 100 Tc, 116 In, 128 , 130 I, and 136 Cs. We use a proton-neutron quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA) theory framework with the Bonn-A two-body interaction in large no-core single-particle valence bases. Our studies indicate that the GT − strength at the giant resonance (GTGR) region and the low-energy part of the IVSM − strength overlap, which could be of significance for the analyses of the ( p,n ) type of reaction experiments at and around the GTGR.
