E1 transitions between spin-dipole and Gamow-Teller giant resonances

The branching ratios for E1 transitions between the spin-dipole (SD) and Gamow-Teller (GT) giant resonances in ${}^{90}$Nb and ${}^{208}$Pb are evaluated. Assuming the main GT-state has the wave function close to that for the “ideal” GT-state, we reduced the problem to calculate the SD and GT strength functions. These strength functions are evaluated within an extended continuum-RPA approach.
