Escape and Spreading Properties of Charge-Exchange Resonances in Bi 208
  The properties of charge-exchange excitations of ${}^ {208}$Pb with $\Delta L = 0$, i.e., the isobaric analog and Gamow-Teller resonances, are studied within a self-consistent model making use of an effective force of the Skyrme type. The well-known isobaric analog case is used to assess the reliability of the model. The calculated properties of the Gamow-Teller resonance are compared with recent experimental measurements with the aim of better understanding the microscopic structure of this mode.
