Minimizing Effective Many-Body Interactions

Nuclear Theory 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

A simple two-level model is developed and used to test the properties of effective interactions for performing nuclear structure calculations in truncated model spaces. It is shown that the effective many-body interactions sensitively depend on the choice of the single-particle basis and they appear to be minimized when a self- consistent Hartree-Fock basis is used.
