On microscopic theory of the gamma-ray strength functions

Using the Theory of Finite Fermi Systems, we obtained a non-magic nuclei generalization of the old theoretical results by J. Speth for magic nuclei dealing with the transitions between excited states and moment values of excited state. Such an extension is quite necessary for microscopic calculations of the gamma ray strength function. The comparison with the standard QRPA has shown that the modern many-body approach gives some new physics. The calculated value of the quadrupole moment of the excited state in 208Pb is agreed satisfactorily with the experiment. Some possible improvements of the theory are briefly discussed.
