Correlated Nucleon Pair Model and Microscopic Basis of Interacting Boson

Yang Liming, Lu DaHai

Published Jul 30, 1998• 1 citation

Abstract

An earlier work dealing with low-lying collective states in nuclei is revised and improved. Correlated and independent nucleon and pairs properly modified so that they behave approximately like bosons are constructed in terms of which a model space for low-lying collective states is defined, and a microscopic basis for IBM is thus set up. All dynamical variables can also be "bosonized", i.e., expressed in terms of these "bosons" but with state-dependent coefficients or operators to incorporate their state dependence in model space.

Microscopic calculation for deformed nuclei

Takaharu Otsuka

The microscopic basis of the Interacting Boson Model for deformed nuclei is discussed. The IBM Hamiltonian is constructed microscopically in the following two steps. In the first step, the collective nucleon pairs of J = 0/sup +/ (S), 2/sup +/ (D), etc. are mapped onto the corresponding bosons. Nucleon-nucleon interactions are also mapped onto boson-boson interactions. This mapping method for deformed nuclei was proposed recently, and it turned out that this method is consistent with the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov + angular momentum projection calculation. Low-lying collective states primarily consist of S and D pairs. Consequently, the corresponding boson states mainly consist of s and d bosons, while there are some admixture of g-bosons. In the second step, effects of these g-bosons are included within the s-d boson space by a unitary transformation which transforms a combination of d and g bosons into a new d-boson. By minimizing the coupling between new d and g bosons with an appropriate mixing angle, one can neglect the coupling and obtain the IBM Hamiltonian with s and d bosons. It is demonstrated that the s-d Hamiltonian thus derived indeed reproduces spectra of the original s-d-g Hamiltonian.

New Transformation for Treating Pair Correlation and Microscopic Foundation of Interacting Boson Model

Yang Li-ming

For strongly pair-correlated systems, a new transformation is derived similar in form to the usual Bogoliubov-Valatin transformation, but with the transformation coefficients replaced by operators. The original fermion operators are now replaced by two sets of independent operators, the pair operators and the quasi-fermions . The transformation conserves the particle number. Among other applications, it is particularly suited for the construction of a microscopic theory of the type of the interacting boson model. The new transformation given here also serves to provide a connection between the usual ph picture of a phonon and the pp picture-of bosons in IBM. However, the boson picture that evolves from the present formulation differs from the ideal boson picture in IBM..

Microscopic Basis of the Interacting Boson Model

Takaharu Otsuka

The microscopic basis of the IBM is discussed in this paper, presenting a derivation of the IBM system from the multi-nucleon system. Although there could be different approaches to this goal as stated in the preface of this supplement, we focus on two approaches. One is the Otsuka-Arima-Iachello mapping, which works for the spherical and near-spherical nuclei. The other is a mapping for deformed nuclei. In this paper, we discuss mapping methods for deriving the Interacting Boson Model (IBM). l) We first present a mapping method for spherical and near-spherical nuclei, usually referred to as the Otsuka-Arima-Iachello (OAI) mapping. 2 ), 3 ) The OAI mapping is based on the seniority scheme as will be discussed in detail. This mapping has been developed so that realistic calculations can be carried out as presented in a subsequent paper. In this paper, the basic concepts of the mapping are discussed rather in detail. Furthermore, the proton-neutron Interacting Boson Model (IBM-2) is discussed as a natural consequence of this mapping. 2 ), 3 ) In the second half of this paper, a mapping method for strongly deformed nuclei 8 ) will be reviewed. Although this mapping is for deformed nuclei, it is somewhat related to the OAI mapping. The work on deformed nuclei is much before any sort of completion, and considerable effort should be made in the future. For this purpose, the Quantum Monte Carlo Diagonalization method proposed recently 4 )- 7 ) may be useful. When the IBM was proposed from the phenomenological viewpoint by Arima and Iachello, the microscopic picture of bosons of this model was not known as pointed out in the preface of this supplement. The microscopic theory has made a crucial contribution even to phenomenological studies by the IBM, also as mentioned in the preface. Before starting rather detailed discussions, it may be useful to overview relevant properties of the effective nucleon-nucleon interactions. The short-range nuclear force favors two nucleons lying close to each other. This means that, if the wave functions of the two neutrons have large spatial overlap, the matrix element of this interaction becomes larger. On the other hand, two identical fermions cannot occupy the same quantum state, and this is the case for two neutrons. The next optimum case for gaining energy is that the two neutrons are moving on the same orbital but in opposite directions. Because the direction is opposite, the quantum states of the two neutrons are different. In this case, the total angular momentum of the two-neutron system is zero, because the rotation is completely cancelled. In fact, the

DYSON'S BOSON EXPANSION AND THE INTERACTING BOSON MODEL

Zhan-Ying Yang, Sen Y

Based on the so-called modified Jancovici-Schiff (MJS) substitution the interacting boson model (IBM) is treated as an approximation to the boson description adopted in the intermediate stage of a fermion description of nuclei. A unitary transformation is introduced to determine microscopically the IBM bosons and the IBM Hamiltonian. A general formula is given to transform the IBM state vectors back into the fermion state space.

The Bosonization Method in Nuclear Physics

FRANCESCO IACHELLO

The bosonization method developed in nuclear physics in the last 20 years is briefly reviewed. Introduction In the last 20 years, a considerable amount of work has gone into the development of bosonization methods for highly correlated finite fermion systems. This work has been stimulated by the phenomenological successes of the interacting boson model introduced in 1974 in which atomic nuclei composed of nucleons (fermions) are treated in terms of an interacting system of bosons (fermion pairs). In this article the logic scheme of the bosonization method in nuclear physics will be briefly reviewed. The purpose here is to provide the basic references upon which the review is built and sources where further references can be found. Bosonization methods were introduced much earlier than 1974 in connection with infinite Fermi systems. The method developed in nuclear physics has some similarities with those developed in other areas of physics, but it also has major differences. In nuclear physics one maps not only operators but also states and seeks a description not only of the ground state but also of the entire excitation spectrum. Furthermore, number projection plays a very important role contrary to the case of infinite systems where number projection is not relevant. These differences, and others, will be briefly remarked upon in this article. Strongly Interacting Finite Fermion Systems Fermions and the Shell Model Quite often in physics one has to deal with a system of interacting fermions.

Collective states in nuclei and many-body random interactions

R. Bijker, Alejandro Frank

Low-lying collective states in nuclei are investigated in the framework of the interacting boson model using an ensemble of random many-body interactions. It is shown that whenever the number of bosons is sufficiently large compared to the rank of the interactions, the spectral properties are characterized by a dominance of ${L}^{P}{=0}^{+}$ ground states and the occurrence of both vibrational and rotational band structures. This indicates that these features represent a general and robust property of the collective model space.
