Abstract
The response of light drip line nuclei to spin-isospin dependent fields is investigated, using the self-consistent Hartree-Fock plus the random-phase approximation with Skyrme interactions. Including simultaneously both the isoscalar and isovector spin correlation, the random-phase-approximation response function is estimated in the coordinate space so as to take properly into account the continuum effect. The spin-orbit splitting, which plays an essential role in the spin-dependent response functions, is examined as a function of the mass number when we approach the drip line nuclei. It is found that the calculated peaks in and are much lower in energy than those expected from our knowledge of the -stable nucleus
