The effects of the tensor force on the charge-exchange Gamow-Teller (GT) and spin-dipole (SD) states are studied by using the self-consistent Hartree-Fock plus Random Phase Approximation (HF+RPA) approach based on Skyrme zero-range forces. We have found, not surprisingly, that the tensor force has a large effect on the GT strength. In the case of the SD excitations, the tensor force produces a softening of the 1− states, but a hardening of 0− and 2− states: these effects improve the agreement with the experimental findings. We have also studied how to constrain the magnitude of the tensor terms of the Skyrme interaction by using the empirical information on the collective GT and SD excited states in 90Zr and 208Pb.
