This is an old revision of the document!


Schedule

Lecturers: Scott Bogner, Peter Ring, Nicolas Schunck, Dario Vretenar


Week 1, Week 2, Week 3


Week 2: Density functional theory for atomic nuclei

Monday, July 21

* Peter Ring 3: Nuclear forces: Invariance properties, general properties, spin and isospin structure.

Tuesday, July 22

* Nicolas Schunck 1: Phenomenological nuclear forces: Skyrme and Gogny forces, concept of energy density functional (EDF), effective pseudopotentials.

A detailed demonstration of the contribution to the energy density coming from the $t_{0}$ term of the Skyrme potential is presented here. If I were you, I would check that the derivation is correct, since I actually forgot some important summations in class…

Wednesday, July 23

* Nicolas Schunck 2: Density functional theory (DFT): Existence theorems, Kohn-Sham scheme in electronic structure theory; the energy density functional (EDF) framework in nuclear structure.

Thursday, July 24

* Scott Bogner 3: Need for realistic nuclear potentials, general introduction to Brueckner-Hartree-Fock theory, introduction to the density matrix expansion, various techniques for DME.

Friday, July 25

* Scott Bogner 4: Non-empirical functionals: Brueckner theory, density matrix expansions, three- body forces
