Density-Matrix Expansion for an Effective Nuclear Hamiltonian

Negele, J. W., Vautherin, D.·1972·Physical Review C

Abstract

An expansion for the nuclear wave-function density matrix in relative and c.m. coordinates is developed such that the leading term is the corresponding nuclear-matter density matrix at the local neutron and proton density. Truncation of all derivatives beyond second order yields an extremely simple form for the energy density which retains all the computational simplicity of the modified $\ensuremath{\delta}$ interaction and the Skyrme force, while maintaining contact with nuclear-matter theory based on a realistic interaction and reproducing the results of more-complicated density-dependent Hartree-Fock calculations.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
