Sažetak
The possibility of applying the quasiparticle Tamm-Dancoff approximation (QTDA) to describe the nuclear double beta decay is explored. Several serious inconveniences found in the quasiparticle random phase approximation (QRPA), such as: i) the extreme sensitivity of the 2νββ decay amplitudes M2ν on the residual interaction in the particle-particle channel, ii) the ambiguity in treating the intermediate states and iii) the need for performing a second charge-conserving QRPA to describe the ββ-decays to the excited final states, are not present in the QTDA. Also, the QTDA allows for explicit evaluation of energy distributions of the double-charge-exchange transition strengths and of their sum rules, and can be straightforwardly applied to single- and double-closed shell nuclei. As an example, the 48Ca−→48Ti decay is discussed within the 1fp-shell in the particle-hole limit of the QTDA. The general [(1, 1)-Pad´e-approximant-like] behavior of the 2νββ-decay amplitude in the plain QRPA as well as within its different variations is briefly reviewed.
