Variational and parquet-diagram calculations for neutron matter. IV. Spin-orbit interactions and linear response
Abstract
We develop the parquet-diagram summation method for neutron matter interacting via potentials that include spin, tensor, and spin-orbit components. For that purpose, we derive an exact expression for the sum of all ring-diagrams in terms effective local particle-hole interactions involving the above four operators. The parquet equations are closed by deriving the spin-orbit contribution to that particle-hole interaction. We show that many-body correlations screen the bare spin-orbit potential considerably, and the corrections of that screened spin-orbit potential to the other three interaction channels are quite small. We apply our method to the calculation of the response of neutron matter to density and both longitudinal and transverse spin-dependent external fields.
