Variation after $K$-projection in antisymmetrized molecular dynamics for low-energy dipole excitations in $^{10}$Be and $^{16}$O

For study of dipole excitations, a new method of variation after $K$-projection in the framework of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD) with the deformation $β$ constraint was proposed. The method was applied to $^{10}$Be and $^{16}$O to describe low-energy dipole excitations and found to be a useful and economical approach for dipole excitations. In the application to $^{10}$Be, two dipole states in low-energy region were described. For $^{16}$O, the $1_1^-$ and $1_2^-$ states with remarkable dipole strengths were obtained. The $1_1^-$ state is characterized by significant toroidal dipole (TD) and compressional dipole strengths, whereas the $1_2^-$ has significant TD strength and shows a developed $α+ {}^{16}$O cluster structure. Dipole properties in $^{16}$O were discussed by analysis of current densities of the dipole transitions.
