We motivate and summarise some recent results in the application of formally exact boundary conditions in nuclear time-dependent Hartree-Fock calculations, making use of Laplace transformations to calculate the values of the wave functions at the boundaries. We have realised the method in the case of giant monopole resonances of spherically-symmetric nuclei, and present strength functions of 16...

A systematic study of the microscopic and thermodynamical properties of pure neutron matter at finite temperature within the self-consistent Green’s-function approach is performed. The model dependence of these results is analyzed by both comparing the results obtained with two different microscopic interactions, the CD Bonn and the Argonne V18 potentials, and by analyzing the results obtained ...

We study the symmetry energy in infinite nuclear matter employing a nonrelativistic Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach and using various new nucleonnucleon (NN) potentials, which fit np and pp scattering data very accurately. The potential models we employ are the recent versions of the Nijmegen group, Nijm-I, Nijm-II and Reid93, the Argonne V18 potential and the CD-Bonn potential. All these poten...

We present that a linear response theory in the continuum can be easily formulated with Absorbing Boundary Condition (ABC). The theory is capable of describing continuum spectra and dynamical correlations. Application of the ABC does not require the spherical symmetry and the method is suitable for mesh representation in the real coordinate space. Isovector giant dipole resonances in beryllium ...

In this chapter we introduce the fundamental concepts behind the Green Function Theory. We start from a description of the second quantization method and then, after introducing the ensemble average of an operator, we define the main object of the theory, the Green function. Further on, after obtaining the equation of motion for the Green function, we introduce the self-energy operator and we d...

In a relativistic Brueckner-Hartree-Fock calculation we include explicit negative-energy states in the two-body propagator. This is achieved by using the Gross spectator-equation, modified by medium effects. Qualitatively our results compare well with other RBHF calculations. In some details significant differences occur, e.g, our equation of state is stiffer and the momentum dependence of the ...

The multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock (MCDHF) model has been employed to calculate the transition rates between the nine lowest levels of radium. The dominant rates were then used to evaluate the radiative lifetimes. The decay of the metastable 7s7p 3P0 state through 2-photon E1M1 and hyperfine induced channels is also studied.

The lattice Schwinger model with SLAC fermions is analyzed with two methods: a Hartree-Fock calculation of the ground state wavefunction, and a weak coupling approximation involving a truncated SLAC derivative. It is shown that $ Goldstone boson of chiral symmetry is actually present, but in the weak coupling limit it acquires infinite velocity. Submitted to Nuclear Physics B * Work supported b...

We determine the structure of neutron stars within a Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach based on realistic nucleon-nucleon, nucleon-hyperon, and hyperon-hyperon interactions. Our results indicate rather low maximum masses below 1.4 solar masses. This feature is insensitive to the nucleonic part of the EOS due to a strong compensation mechanism caused by the appearance of hyperons and represents th...

An effective Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov-type interaction is calculated for the Hubbard model in second order in the coupling by means of flow equations. A stability analysis is performed in order to obtain the transition into various possible phases. We find, that the second order contribution weakens the tendency for the antiferromagnetic transition. Apart from a possible antiferromagnetic transi...
