Understanding HFB Methods: Mean-Field Dynamics and Nuclei Interactions

This text explores the meaning and dependence of HFB (Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov) methods, emphasizing the role of interactions in nuclear physics. It discusses mean-field wave functions, configuration mixing, and diagonalization results related to odd and even nuclei. By examining effective interactions for mean-field and pairing, key insights into rotational properties of actinides and transactinides are provided. The analysis also evaluates the interpretation of spectra in odd nuclei, offering a comprehensive view of energy configurations and quantum states relevant to nuclear structure.

  1. Sp states in HFB methods • What do they mean? • How do they depend: on the interaction on N and Z P. Bonche, M. Bender, A. Chatillon, T. Duguet, PHH

  2. Beyond mean-field • Set of mean-field wave functions depending on axial q • Projection on N, Z, J: • New wave functions by mixing on q: withfJ,k (q)determined by minimizing the energy:

  3. Mean-field (HFBCS) MF projected on J=0 Configuration mixing for J=0 Four typical nuclei

  4. HFB methods • Effective interaction for mean-field and pairing:

  5. Result of diagonalization: qp energies (not fully significant with LN) The sp energies are the diagonal parts of h For an even nucleus: gs vacuum For an odd nucleus: 1qp state associated with the quantum numbersi (two operators for 2qp states in even nuclei) The only well defined quantity is the total energy of a configuration

  6. It works! • Rotational properties of actinides and transactinides (self consistent cranking): test of pairing • Interpretation of spectra of odd nuclei test of the mean-field part of the interaction
