Improved Method for Eliminating Center-of-Mass Coordinates from Matrix Elements in Oscillator Bases

  • Chapter
Condensed Matter Theories

Abstract

This work arose out of attempts by the authors and Daniel 0. Vona III to develop computer programs that would automatically calculate stationary state properties of nuclei.1 These use a mixture of configurations constructed from isotropic harmonic oscillator single particle states. As a test of the methods and programs, extensive calculations (up to 350 configurations) were performed on the A = 3 system, primarily using a soft-core Gaussian type potential with tensor and spin-orbit terms due to Eikemeier and Hackenbroich.2
