Nuclear matter calculations with the phenomenological three-nucleon interaction

Nucleon-Nucleon Cross Sections in Nuclear Matter

We provide a microscopic calculation of neutron-proton and neutron-neutron cross sections in symmetric nuclear matter at various densities, using the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approximation scheme with the Paris potential. We investigate separately the medium eeects on the eeective mass and on the scattering amplitude. We determine average cross sections suitable for application in the dynamical s...

Non-locality in the nucleon-nucleon interaction and nuclear matter saturation

We study the possible relationship between the saturation properties of nuclear matter and the inclusion of non-locality in the nucleon-nucleon interaction. To this purpose we compute the saturation curve of nuclear matter within the Bethe-Brueckner-Goldstone theory using a recently proposed realistic non-local potential, and compare it with the corresponding curves obtained with a purely local...

Superfluid nuclear matter calculations

We present a method to calculate nuclear matter properties in the superfluid phase. The method is based on the use of self-consistent off-shell nucleon propagators in the T-matrix equation. Such a complete treatment of the spectral function, is required below and around Tc due to a pseudogap formation in the spectral function. In the superfluid phase we introduce the anomalous self-energy in th...

Nucleon Spectral Function in Nuclear Matter

The nucleon spectral function in infinite nuclear matter is calculated in a quantum transport theoretical approach. Exploiting the known relation between collision rates and correlation functions the spectral function is derived self-consistently. By re-inserting the spectral functions into the collision integrals the description of hard processes from the high-momentum components of wave funct...
