Phys. Rev. C 78, 044325 (2008) [11 pages]Assessment of the importance of the pairing interaction in the continuumReceived 24 April 2008; published 27 October 2008 A pairing interaction fitted to be applied in nuclei with active particles moving close to the continuum threshold or even immersed in the continuum itself is introduced. It is found that the effects of the nonresonant continuum upon physically meaningful quantities is unimportant. We applied the theory to heavy tin isotopes and good agreement between theory and the very few available experimental data is found. © 2008 The American Physical Society URL:
