Abstract
The charge-exchange spin-dipole (SD) excitations for both and channels in O are investigated in the fully self-consistent random phase approximation based on the covariant density functional theory. The fine structure of SD excitations in the most up-to-date O()F experiment is excellently reproduced without any readjustment in the functional. The SD excitations are characterized by the delicate balance between the - and -meson fields via the exchange terms. The fine structure of SD excitations for the O()N channel is predicted for future experiments.
