Nuclear Energy Density Functionals Constrained by Low-Energy QCD
A microscopic framework of nuclear energy density functionals is reviewed, which establishes a direct relation between low-energy QCD and nuclear structure, synthesizing effective field theory methods and principles of density functional theory. Guided by two closely related features of QCD in the lowenergy limit: a) in-medium changes of vacuum condensates, and b) spontaneous breaking of chiral...
متن کاملSimple Fully Nonlocal Density Functionals for Electronic Repulsion Energy
From a simplified version of the mathematical structure of the strong coupling limit of the exact exchange-correlation functional, we construct an approximation for the electronic repulsion energy at physical coupling strength, which is fully nonlocal. This functional is self-interaction free and yields energy densities within the definition of the electrostatic potential of the exchange-correl...
متن کاملSpectroscopic properties of nuclear skyrme energy density functionals.
We address the question of how to improve the agreement between theoretical nuclear single-particle energies (SPEs) and observations. Empirically, in doubly magic nuclei, the SPEs can be deduced from spectroscopic properties of odd nuclei that have one more or one less neutron or proton. Theoretically, bare SPEs, before being confronted with observations, must be corrected for the effects of th...
متن کاملUnconstrained Energy Functionals for Electronic Structure Calculations
The performance of conjugate gradient schemes for minimizing unconstrained energy functionals in the context of condensed matter electronic structure calculations is studied. The unconstrained functionals allow a straightforward application of conjugate gradients by removing the explicit orthonormality constraints on the quantum-mechanical wave functions. However, the removal of the constraints...
متن کاملNeutron drops and Skyrme energy-density functionals.
The J =0 ground state of a drop of 8 neutrons and the lowest 1/2 and 3/2 states of 7-neutron drops, all in an external well, are computed accurately with variational and Green's function Monte Carlo methods for a Hamiltonian containing the Argonne v18 two-nucleon and Urbana IX three-nucleon potentials. These states are also calculated using Skyrme-type energy-density functionals. Commonly used ...
