Sum rules of single-particle spectral functions in hot asymmetric nuclear matter

Abstract

The neutron and proton single-particle spectral functions in asymmetric nuclear matter fulfill energy weighted sum rules. The validity of these sum rules within the self-consistent Green's function approach is investigated. The various contributions to these sum rules and their convergence as a function of energy provide information about correlations induced by the realistic interaction between the nucleons. These features are studied as a function of the asymmetry of nuclear matter.

Realistic and effective interactions in the study of nuclear matter

V. Somà

The equation of state of symmetric nuclear matter is addressed starting both from a realistic interaction derived from nucleon-nucleon scattering processes and from a low-momentum effective potential. The approach is based on finite temperature Green’s functions. The internal energy per particle is estimated from the summation of diagrams and through the Galitskii-Koltun’s sum rule. At present, there is not a unique and reliable theory of nuclear interactions. From the study of nucleon-nucleon scattering processes different models for the basic interaction between nucleons have been developed, but difficulties arise when they are used in calculations which aim to reproduce the properties of bound nuclei. These models all reproduce the experimental N-N phase shifts up to the threshold for pion production with high accuracy, but differ in the short-wavelength region, where less experimental constraints are available. In deriving the properties of dense nuclear matter, if we start from a bare N-N potential we have to take into account the complex correlations induced

Nuclear Matter Spectral Functions by Transport Theory

J. Lehr A, H. Lenske, Stefan Leupold +1 more

Quantum transport theory is used to calculate the nucleon spectral function in infinite nuclear matter. A self-consistent description is obtained by utilizing the relations between collision rates and correlation functions. Static and dynamical self-energies are taken into account in the single particle propagators. The real parts of the non-static self-energy contributions are calculated by dispersion theory thus conserving the analyticity of momentum distributions. The transport theoretical spectral functions, momentum distributions, occupation probabilities and responce functions are in close agreement with results of variational and other many-body theoretical calculations. The results indicate that the nucleon spectral functions are determined only by the average short-range correlation strength.

Entropy of a correlated system of nucleons

Arnau Rios, A. Polls, Angels Ramos +1 more

Realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions induce correlations to the nuclear many-body system, which lead to a fragmentation of the single-particle strength over a wide range of energies and momenta. We address the question of how this fragmentation affects the thermodynamical properties of nuclear matter. In particular, we show that the entropy can be computed with the help of a spectral function, which can be evaluated in terms of the self-energy obtained in the self-consistent Green's function approach. Results for the density and temperature dependences of the entropy per particle for symmetric nuclear matter are presented and compared to the results of lowest order finite-temperature Brueckner-Hartree-Fock calculations. The effects of correlations on the calculated entropy are small, if the appropriate quasiparticle approximation is used. The results demonstrate the thermodynamical consistency of the self-consistent $T$-matrix approximation for the evaluation of the Green's functions.

Nucleon correlations and the equation of state of nuclear matter

A. Polls, Willem H Dickhoff, H. Müther +6 more

The self-consistent Green’s function method within the ladder approximation provides a microscopic description of correlated nuclear systems which properly treats the nucleon-nucleon correlations induced by the short-range and tensor components present in any realistic interaction. These correlations produce a sizable depletion of low momenta below the Fermi surface as well as the occupation of high momenta in the nuclear ground state. A few representative results for nuclear matter are presented to illustrate the present progress in the application of this method to nuclear systems.

Self-consistent solution to the nuclear many-body problem at finite temperature

T. Frick, H. Müther

The properties of symmetric nuclear matter are investigated within Green's functions approach. We have implemented an iterative procedure allowing for a self-consistent evaluation of the single-particle and two-particle propagators. The in-medium scattering equation is solved for a realistic (nonseparable) nucleon-nucleon interaction including both particle-particle and hole-hole propagation. The corresponding two-particle propagator is constructed explicitly from the single-particle spectral functions. Results are obtained for finite temperatures and an extrapolation to $T=0$ is presented.

Spectral properties of nuclear matter

We review self-consistent spectral methods for nuclear matter calculations. The in-medium T −matrix approach is conserving and thermodynamically consistent. It gives both the global and the single-particle properties the system. The T −matrix approximation allows to address the pairing phenomenon in cold nuclear matter. A generalization of nuclear matter calculations to the superfluid phase is discussed and numerical results are presented for this case. The linear response of a correlated system going beyond the Hartree-Fock+ Random-Phase-Approximation (RPA) scheme is studied. The polarization is obtained by solving a consistent Bethe-Salpeter (BS) equation for the coupling of dressed nucleons to an external field. We find that multipair contributions are important for the spin(isospin) response when the interaction is spin(isospin) dependent. 1
