Abstract

Exact solution of the nuclear mean-field plus separable pairing model is reexamined. New auxiliary constraints for solving the Bethe ansatz equations of the model are proposed. By using these auxiliary constraints, the Bethe ansatz form of eigenvectors of the mean-field plus separable pairing Hamiltonian with nondegenerate single-particle energies and nondegenerate separable pairing strengths purposed previously is verified. Since the solutions of the model with one- and two-orbit cases are known, verification of the solutions for these two special cases is made. To demonstrate structure and features of the solution, the model with three orbits in the $ds$ shell is taken as a nontrivial example, of which two-pair results and the ground state of the three-pair case are provided explicitly. Since the number of equations involved increases with the number of orbits and pairs, to solve these equations for a large number of orbits and pairs seems still difficult.

Extended Bethe-Richardson-Gaudin ansatzes for the solution of a mean-field plus separable pairing model with three non-degenerate j-orbits

Feng Pan, Yingxin Wu, Shengze Guan +3 more

Based on the Bethe-Richardson-Gaudin ansatz for the standard pairing model, extended Bethe- Richardson-Gaudin ansatzes for eigenvectors of a spherical mean-field plus separable pairing model with three non-degenerate j-orbits are proffered. It is shown that the number of variables appearing in the general extended ansatz eigenvectors for given number of pairs N is N(N+1)/2. More importantly, when one of the j orbits is 1/2, there are only 2N variables involved in the alternative extended ansatz eigenvectors, which, like the standard pairing model, can be solved efficiently. Numerical results for an application of the model in the ds-shell up to its half-filling are presented, which serves to validate the procedure and illustrates the completeness of the solutions it renders.

New exact solutions of the standard pairing model for well-deformed nuclei

Feng Pan, Mingxia Xie, Xin Guan +2 more

A new step-by-step diagonalization procedure for evaluating exact solutions of the nuclear deformed mean-field plus pairing interaction model is proposed via a simple Bethe ansatz in each step from which the eigenvalues and corresponding eigenstates can be obtained progressively. This new approach draws upon an observation that the original one- plus two-body problem in a $k$-particle Hilbert subspace can be mapped onto a one-body grand hard-core boson picture that can be solved step by step with a simple Bethe ansatz known from earlier work. Based on this new procedure, it is further shown that the extended pairing model for deformed nuclei [Feng Pan, V. G. Gueorguiev, and J. P. Draayer, Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 112503 (2004)] is similar to the standard pairing model with the first step approximation, in which only the lowest energy eigenstate of the standard pure pairing interaction part is taken into consideration. Our analysis shows that the standard pairing model with the first step approximation displays similar pair structures of the first few exact low-lying states of the model, which, therefore, provides a link between the two models.

Exact solutions for the mean field plus state-dependent pairing Hamiltonian

Feng Pan, Jerry Paul Draayer, Lu Guo

The nuclear mean field plus state-dependent pairing problem is studied by using the Bethe ansatz method. It is shown that the Hamiltonian can be expanded in terms of generators of the infinite-dimensional Lie algebra without central extension. Exact solutions for excited energies and the corresponding eigenstates of the nuclear pairing problem are derived through the Bethe ansatz equations.

Exact solution of the orbit-dependent pairing Hamiltonian

Feng Pan, Jerry Paul Draayer

An infinite-dimensional algebraic approach is introduced to derive exact particle-number conserving solutions of the nuclear mean-field plus orbit-dependent pairing Hamiltonian. As an example, exact solutions of a model Hamiltonian for ds-shell nuclei are compared with shell-model and equal strength pairing calculations for isotopes.

Solutions of nuclear pairing

A. B. Balantekin, Yamaç Pehlivan

We give the exact solution of orbit dependent nuclear pairing problem between two nondegenerate energy levels using the Bethe ansatz technique. Our solution reduces to previously solved cases in the appropriate limits including Richardson's treatment of reduced pairing in terms of rational Gaudin algebra operators.

Spectra and symmetry in nuclear pairing

A. B. Balantekin, J. H. de Jesus, Yamaç Pehlivan

We apply the algebraic Bethe ansatz technique to the nuclear pairing problem with orbit dependent coupling constants and degenerate single particle energy levels. We find the exact energies and eigenstates. We show that for a given shell, there are degeneracies between the states corresponding to less than and more than half full shell. We also provide a technique to solve the equations of Bethe ansatz.
