Pairing correlations beyond the mean field

Nuclear Theory 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

We discuss dynamical pairing correlations in the context of configuration mixing of projected self-consistent mean-field states, and the origin of a divergence that might appear when such calculations are done using an energy functional in the spirit of a naive generalized density functional theory.
