Historical remarks/background (III) Pair correlations take place in the vicinity of Fermi energy, in the region: EF-D < p2/2m < EF+D pF2 (pF+dp)2 + vFdp = 2m 2m Uncertainity in momentum space: dp ~ D/vF dx ~ hvF/D (the so called coherence length i.e. spatial extension of the Cooper pair x) (200MeVfm)2 1.4fm-1 • nucleonic Cooper pairs • overlap!!! (hc)2kF 1 x = dx = >> (mc2)D kF • hierarchy!!! 1000MeV 1MeV interparticle distance these considerations pertain to infinite-matter Nuclei are s-wave [predominantly] superconductors in weak-coupling limit!

TOWARDS EFFECTIVE PAIRING THEORY (IIIa) in-medium effects towards the SLDA approach: [Superfluid Local Density Approximation] Major obstacle in constructing SLDA is: we use cut-off!!! (usual, but not at all satisfactory solution) anomalous density (pairing tensor) ultraviolet divergence In particular, in infinite homogenous system (example): regular „regularize” means in practice simply „remove divergent part” (relate to scattering amplitude; use dimensional regularization; introduce counter-terms [regulators] with explicit cut-off) isolate and regularize divergent term ;
