Decay-Out Of Superdeformed Bands By Coupling To Ordered Or Chaotic Spectra
Different treatments of the decay-out of superdeformed bands are reviewed, focusing on the role of the normally deformed doorway states to which the superdeformed band primarily couples at decay-out. A schematic description based on sparse GOE matrices is formulated for the normally deformed states including one doorway state. This allows for a gradual change of the normally deformed spectrum from
