Do light nuclei exhibit “collective” motions?

| Summary: | The Lorentz integral transform (LIT) method has allowed to perform ab initio calculations of the response function of 4,6He, and 6,7Li to the isoscalar monopole and isovector dipole operators in a wide range of energies. In this work we discuss some of these results and focus in particular on the 4He case, where one has a 0+ resonance close to the 3+1 thresholds. In fact, in inelastic electron scattering off 4He one finds a pronounced resonant structure in the isoscalar monopole strength. The knowledge of this strength as a function of energy makes possible calculations of the corresponding nonenergy weighted and energy-weighted sum rules. Comparing the sum rules with their contribution from the resonance region hints to the degree of collectivity of the resonant structure.
