Nuclear Energy Density Functional Nuclear Energy Density Functionals: the many-body problem is mapped onto a one-body problem without explicitly involving inter-nucleon interactions! Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory For any interacting system, there exists a local single-particle potential h(r),such that the exact ground-state density of the interacting system can be reproduced by non-interacting particles moving in this local potential. The practical usefulness of the Kohn-Sham scheme depends entirely on whether Accurate Energy Density Functionalcan be found!
Density functional theory in nuclei Nuclear DFT has been introduced by effective Hamiltonians: by Vautherin and Brink (1972) using the Skyrme model as a vehicle Based on the philosophy of Bethe, Goldstone, and Brueckner one has a density dependent interaction in the nuclear interior G(ρ) At present, the ansatz for E(ρ) is phenomenological: • Skyrme: non-relativistic, zero range • Gogny: non-relativistic, finite range (Gaussian) • CDFT:Covariant density functional theory

FullRelativistic Brueckner–Hartree–Fock • Ab initio calculations, the description of finite nuclei with a bare nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction, form a central problem of theoretical nuclear physics. • Nonrelativistic potentials systematically failed to reproduce the saturation properties of infinite nuclear matter in ab initio calculations. It has been concluded that the bare three-body force plays an essential role. • Relativistic Brueckner–Hartree–Fock theory, based on RHF calculations with the 𝐺-matrix, can reproduce empirical saturation data without three-body forces. • Inspired by the success of the RBHF theory in nuclear matter, it is a natural extension to study finite nuclei in the same framework.

Δ ≈ 9 MeV Δ ≈ 0.7 MeV • Behavior of Ecm from PBV is similar to PAV. • Energy E from PBV is similar to PAV after the first RHF iteration (G1), but very different from the second RHF iteration (G2).
Center-of-mass Motion • Single-particle spectrum for PAV and PBV for 1st RHF iteration (G1), and the final RHF iteration (G4). • As PBV includes -Hcm in RHF equation, the sp energies are lower than that of PAV, especially those high lying states. • Different s.p. spectrum give different G-matrix. • PAV is a good approximation for PBV in RHF calculation, but not in RBHF calculation. • In RBHF calculation, PBV method should be used.

Different Choices for Single-Particle Potential • Energy spectrum and charge density distribution of RBHF calculation for 16O with different s.p. potentials for particle states. • There is a “gap” between particle states and hole states with gap choice. • Choice with ε’ below Fermi surface give similar results. • Central density given by gap choice is smaller than the other choices.
