Abstract

A systematic microscopic theory of large-amplitude collective motion, which has been recently developed within the framework of the time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) theory under INS-TSUKUBA joint research project, is reformulated in terms of classical mechanics in the TDHF symplectic manifold. This reformulation clarifies an essential concept in the theory, i.e., an approximate integral surface in the TDHF manifold, which is identified as a dynamical collective submanifold for the large-amplitude collective motion. It is shown that the approximate integral surface must satisfy three dynamical conditions; (a) a stationary condition (i.e., a maximal-decoupling condition), (b) a stability condition and (c) a separability condition between collective and “local” non-collective modes of motion. These three dynamical conditions make clear the concept of “local” intrinsic modes of motion and guarantee that the TDHF-trajectory representing the large-amplitude collective motion under consideration is successfully reproduced on the approximate integral surface.

Geometry of the Self-Consistent Collective-Coordinate Method for the Large-Amplitude Collective Motion: Stability Condition of ";Maximally-Decoupled" Collective Submanifold

Fumihiko Sakata, Toshio Marumori, Yukio Hashimoto +1 more

The geometry of the self-consistent collective-coordinate (SCC) method formulated within the frame-work of the time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) theory is investigated by associating the variational parameters with a symplectic manifold (a TDHF manifold). With the use of a canonical-variable parametrization, it is shown that the TDHF equation is equivalent to the canonical equations of motion in classical mechanics in the TDHF manifold. This enables us to investigate geometrical structure of the SCC method in the language of the classical mechanics. The SCC method turns out to give a prescription how to dynamically extract a “maximally-decoupled” collective submanifold (hypersurface) out of the TDHF manifold, in such a way that a certain kind of trajectories corresponding to the large-amplitude collective motion under consideration can be reproduced on the hypersurface as precisely as possible. The stability of the hypersurface at each point on it is investigated, in order to see whether the hypersurface obtained by the SCC method is really an approximate integral surface in the TDHF manifold or not.

Collective, Dissipative and Stochastic Motions in the TDHF Theory

K. Muramatsu, Fumihiko Sakata, Y. Yamamoto +1 more

By applying the microscopic theory of dynamical collective submanifold, which has been formulated by the present authors, to a system with a simple model Hamiltonian, characteristic features of large-amplitude motion described by the time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) theory are visualized. Our theory dynamically defines an “optimum” submanifold out of the TDHF symplectic manifold (phase space) in such a way that the Hamiltonian on the submanifold is stationary with respect to variations perpendicular to it. The theory also classifies the submanifold into three different regions in terms of stablility and separability conditions. It is displayed that these three regions characterize collective, dissipative and stochastic motions in the TDHF theory.

Dynamic response function and large-amplitude dissipative collective motion

Xi-Zhen Wu, Fumihiko Sakata, Yizhong Zhuo +1 more

Aiming at exploring microscopic dynamics responsible for the dissipative large-amplitude collective motion, the dynamic response and correlation functions are introduced within the general theory of nuclear coupled-master equations. The theory is based on the microscopic theory of nuclear collective dynamics which has been developed within the time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) theory for disclosing the complex structure of the TDHF manifold. A systematic numerical method for calculating the dynamic response and correlation functions is proposed. By performing numerical calculation for a simple model Hamiltonian, it is pointed out that the dynamic response function gives important information in understanding the large-amplitude dissipative collective motion which is described by an ensemble of trajectories within the TDHF manifold.

Quantum Theory of Dynamical Collective Subspace for Large-Amplitude Collective Motion

Fumihiko Sakata, Toshio Marumori, M. Ogura

By placing emphasis on conceptual correspondence to the “classical” theory which has been developed within the framework of the time-dependent Hartree-Fock theory, a full quantum theory appropriate for describing large-amplitude collective motion is proposed. A central problem of the quantum theory is how to determine an optimal representation called a dynamical representation; the representation is specific for the collective subspace where the large-amplitue collective motion is replicated as satisfactoryly as possible. As an extension of the classical theory where the concept of an approximate integral surface plays an important role, the dynamical representation is properly characterized by introducing a concept of an approximate invariant subspace of the Hamiltonian.

Determination of the collective Hamiltonian in a self-consistent theory of large amplitude adiabatic motion

G. Do Dang, Aurel Bulgac, Abraham Klein

The starting point for most studies of large amplitude collective motion in nuclear physics, the time-dependent Hartree-Fock equations, can be mapped to a problem in classical Hamiltonian mechanics, which is the form of the problem studied in this work. For a system with N degrees of freedom, collective motion is identified with motion completely confined to a surface in K<N dimensions. Conditions for the existence of such decoupled surfaces are worked out and a procedure for constructing them is formulated. For most practical problems, where such surfaces do not strictly exist, a concept of approximate decoupling is developed and a test of its accuracy is described. Our results generalize the method of maximum global decoupling found in the earlier literature.

A theory based on the time•dependent Hartree•Fock theory is proposed with the aim of describing large amplitude collective motion and its coupling with intrinsic degrees of freedom.With the use of time•dependent canonical transformation, the whole system is separated into two types of degrees of freedom.Under the condition of unique separation, two kinds of equations of collective submanifold are obtained.One js for the collective motion and of the same form as that previously given by the present authors.The other is for the intrinsic degrees of freedom and consists of a set of linear partial differential equations.It is reduced to the old one, the form of which is non-linear.
