Complementarity in nuclear structure studies

Nuclear Structure Studies in Fermionic Molecular Dynamics

In the Fermionic Molecular Dynamics (FMD) approach many-body wave functions are described by Slater determinants of Gaussian wave-packets localized in phase space. The symmetries of the Hamiltonian are restored by projection on parity, angular and linear momentum. An effective interaction derived from the realistic Argonne V18 interaction by explicit introduction of short-range central and tens...

Nuclear structure and reaction studies at SPIRAL

The SPIRAL facility at GANIL, operational since 2001, is described briefly. The diverse physics program using the re-accelerated (1.2 to 25 MeV/u) beams ranging from He to Kr and the instrumentation specially developed for their exploitation are presented. Results of these studies, using both direct and compound processes, addressing various questions related to the existence of exotic states o...

Case Studies in Complementarity: Improving Model Formulation

Over the past several years, many practitioners have been formulating nonlinear variational inequalities as mixed complementarity problems within modeling languages such as GAMS and AMPL. Sometimes the models generated are poorly specified, either because the function is undefined near the solution or the problem is ill-conditioned or singular. In this paper, we look at information provided by ...

The Intentionality Structure of Complementarity

Studies on Nuclear Structure and Function in Tetrahymena Pyriformis

This report describes a rapid, efficient method for isolating macronuclei from Tetrahymena. The macronuclear fraction contains only small amounts of micronuclear material and little detectable whole cell or cytoplasmic contamination. A method is also described for preparing a "micronuclear fraction" which contains 20-40 micronuclei for every macronucleus present. Electron microscope observation...
