Soft dipole resonance in C and its isospin symmetry with He
We investigate the soft dipole resonance in the proton-rich nucleus C, which is a collective dipole oscillation of four valence protons against the core,and discuss the isospin symmetry with the mirror nucleus He. We use the five-body cluster model and many-body resonances are obtained using the complex-scaling method. The resonance of C is confirmed at the excitation energy of 13 MeV with a large decay width of 24 MeV, and its structure is similar to the soft dipole resonance in He, such as the configuration mixing and the spatial properties. These results indicate a good isospin symmetry in the soft dipole resonances of two nuclei with a common collective excitation of multiproton and multineutron, while the ground states of two nuclei show different properties due to the Coulomb repulsion of valence protons in C, leading to the symmetry breaking. In conclusion, the appearance of the isospin symmetry differs depending on the states of C and He.
