Abstract

A method is presented for calculating the spectroscopic average of higher-order terms in the G-matrix expansion of the nuclear effective interaction. Results for the 1d-2s and 1f-2p shells show that the expansion is well behaved on the average through third order, in contrast to earlier results for J,T = 0,1 states.

Third-order treatment of the one-body effective interaction
1979, Nuclear Physics, Section A
All terms through third order in the reaction matrix that contribute to the one-body effective interaction of ¹⁷O are evaluated using an accurate, energy-dependent reaction matrix. The thirdorder terms are respectably small compared to the second-order terms. The three-particle two-hole (3p2h) terms give a uniform repulsion of about 1 MeV with little influence on the excitation spectrum. As a result, the 0d_$52$, 1s_$12$ and 0d_$32$ valence energies are in reasonable agreement with the experimental excitation energies as found earlier with a (1p + 2plh) all-orders approach. However, the absolute energy is now about 2 MeV too repulsive.

The average effective interaction in linked cluster theory
1975, Nuclear Physics, Section A
We derive a theoretical method for calculating the averages (over J and T) of matrix elements of the nuclear effective interaction, in any order of the linked cluster expansion. We apply this to calculate all terms through fourth order in the G-matrix, for the averages in mass-6 and mass-18 nuclei. We find that the averages in fourth order are as large as in second and third order. This behavior is associated with a small number of terms, which suggests a partial summation method of improving the series. The relation to other work is discussed.

Scalar and configuration traces of operators in large spectroscopic spaces
1978, Nuclear Physics, Section A
In statistical spectroscopic calculations, the primary input is the trace of products of powers of Hamiltonian and excitation operators. The lack of a systematic approach to trace evaluation has been in the past one of the major difficulties in the applications of statistical spectroscopic methods. A general method, with a simple derivation, is described here to evaluate the scalar and configuration traces for operators expressed either in the m-scheme or fully coupled JT scheme. It is shown to be an effective method by actually programming it on a computer. Implications on the future applications of statistical spectroscopy in the area of level density, strength function and perturbation theory are also briefly discussed.
