Abstract
The time-dependent Hartree–Fock equation is solved by the Wigner function moments method taking into account spin degrees of freedom. Energies and reduced transition probabilities of Kπ = 0−, 1− and 2− excitations are calculated taking 164Dy as an example. The spin degrees of freedom give rise to the electric spin dipole resonance. Its properties and interplay with the giant dipole resonance are investigated. The deformation-induced splitting of the spin M2 resonance is discussed. The results of calculations are compared with the experimental data and other theoretical studies.
