Alignment of wave functions for angular momentum projection | Yasutaka Taniguchi
; | Date: |
1 Sep 2016 | Abstract: | Angular momentum projection is used to obtain eigen states of angular
momentum from general wave functions. Multi-configuration mixing calculation
with angular momentum projection is an important microscopic method in nuclear
physics. For accurate multi-configuration mixing calculation with angular
momentum projection, concentrated distribution of $z$ components $K$ of angular
momentum in the body-fixed frame ($K$-distribution) is favored. Orientation of
wave functions strongly affects $K$-distribution. Minimization of variance of
$hat{J}_z$ is proposed as an alignment method to obtain wave functions that
have concentrated $K$-distribution. Benchmark calculations are performed for
$alpha$-$^{24}$Mg cluster structure, triaxially superdeformed states in
$^{40}$Ar, and Hartree-Fock states of some nuclei. The proposed alignment
method is useful and works well for various wave functions to obtain
concentrated $K$-distribution. | Source: | arXiv, 1608.8726 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
