ResumoAbstract This study presents the descriptive characteristics of the electric dipole ( E 1) excitations for the first time in the 237 Np nucleus, such as the reduced transition probability, the photo-absorption cross-section, the energy-weighted sum rule, and so on, as calculated by the Translational and Galilean Invariant Quasiparticle Phonon Nuclear Model (TGI-QPNM). To accurately determine the dipole properties of the collective pygmy and giant resonances, it was necessary to eliminate the spurious states mixed into the dipole spectrum because the mean-field Hamiltonian breaks the translational invariance symmetry. We therefore also investigated the effect of spurious states on the PDR and GDR spectra using the TGI-QPNM method. In addition, we consulted the available knowledge for the energy-weighted sum rule to test the TGI-QPNM model, and this resulted in 97% accuracy for E 1 dipole excitations. Furthermore, the theoretical results were compared with experimental data for the photo-absorption cross-sections in the 5–20 MeV energy range for the 237 Np nucleus, with a satisfactory agreement being found.
