Abstract
The hydrodynamic two-fluid model of Steinwedel and Jensen (1950) for the explanation of the isovector giant dipole resonance energies is extended to include viscosity and is generalized to isoscalar and isovector resonances of arbitrary multipolarity. It is thus possible to calculate the energies as well as the widths of various giant resonances and to compare them with experimental data. Viscosity enters solely by the Navier-Stokes viscous forces and not by a phenomenological linear frictional force as has been previously employed.Keywords
