1、Microscopic Description of the Breathing Mode and Nuclear CompressibilityPresented By: David Carson FulsCyclotron REU Program 2005Mentor: Dr. Shalom ShlomoIntroductionWe use the microscopic Hartree-Fock (HF) based Random-Phase-Approximation (RPA) theory to describe the breathing mode in the 90Zr, 11
2、6Sn, 144Sm, and 208Pb nuclei, which are very sensitive to the nuclear matter incompressibility coefficient K. The value of K is directly related to the curvature of the equation of state, which is a very important quantity in the study of properties of nuclear matter, heavy ion collisions, neutron s
3、tars, and supernova. We present results of fully self-consistent HF+RPA calculations for the centroid energies of the breathing modes in the four nuclei using several Skyrme type nucleon-nucleon (NN) interactions and compare the results with available experimental data to deduce a value for K. fm-3

Performing a Taylor expansion of the density we obtain,We have, Where is equal to
7、 This nicely agrees with the transition density obtained from RPA calculations.Microscopic Description of the Breathing ModeGround StateThe ground state of the nucleus with A nucleons is given by an antisymmetric wave function which is, in the mean-field approximation, given by a Slater determinant.
8、 In the spherical case, the single-particle wave function is given in terms of the radial , the spherical spin harmonic , and the isospin functions:The total Hamiltonian of the nucleus is written as a sum of the kinetic T and potential V energies Where The total energy ENow we apply the variation pr

We minimize by varying with the constraint of particle number conservation,and obtain the Hartree-Fock equations For the two-body nuclear potential Vij, we take a Skyrme type effective NN interaction given by, The Skyrme interaction parameters (ti, xi, ,
10、 and Wo) are obtained by fitting the HF results to the experimental data. This interaction is written in terms of delta functions which make the integrals in the HF equations easier to carry out. For a spherical case the HF equations can be reduced to,where the effective mass , the central potential
11、 , and the spin-orbit potential are written in terms of the Skyrme parameters, matter density, charge density, and current density.Method of Solving the HF EquationsWith an initial guess of the single-particle wave functions (usually the harmonic oscillator wave functions because they are known anal
12、ytically) we can find the matter density, kinetic density, current density, and charge density. Once we know these values, we can use them to find the effective mass, central potential, and the spin- orbit potential. We then use these functions in the HF equations to find the new radial wave functio

In the Greens Function formulation of RPA, one starts with the RPA-Greens function which is given bywhere Vph is the particle-hole interaction and the free particle-hole Greens function is defined as,where is the single-
15、particle wave function, i is the single-particle energy, and ho is the single-particle Hamiltonian. We use the scattering operator Fwhere for monopole excitation, to obtain the strength functionand the transition density. A Note on Self-ConsistencyIn numerical implementation of HF based RPA theory,
16、it is the job of the theorist to limit the numerical errors so that these are lower than the experimental errors. Some available HF+RPA calculations omit parts of the particle-hole interaction that are numerically difficult to implement, such as the spin-orbit or Coulomb parts. Omission of these ter
17、ms leads to self-consistency violation, and the shift in the centroid energy can be on the order of 1 MeV or 5 times the experimental error. The calculations we have carried out are fully self-consistent. Note: For example: E = 14 MeV (in 208Pb), and K = 230 MeV, then a E = 1 MeV leads to K = 35 MeV
