New Version Program Summary

Solution of the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov equations in the Cartesian deformed harmonic-oscillator basis. (IV) hfodd (v2.07f): a new version of the program. Abstract We describe the new version (v2.07f) of the code hfodd which solves the nuclear Skyrme-Hartree-Fock or Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov problem by using the Cartesian deformed harmonic-oscillator basis. In the new version, all symmetries can be broken, which allows for calculations with angular frequency and angular momentum tilted with respect to the mass distribution. The new version contains an interface to the LAPACK subroutine zhpevx. Title of the program: hfodd (v2.07f) Does the new version supersede the previous one: yes Computers on which the program has been tested: Programming language used: FORTRAN-77 and FORTRAN-90 Memory required to execute with typical data: 10 Mwords No. of bits in a word: The code is written in single-precision for the use on a 64-bit processor. The compiler option-r8 or +autodblpad (or equivalent) has to be used to promote all real and complex single-precision floating-point items to double precision when the code is used on a 32-bit machine. Has the code been vectorised?: Yes No. of lines in distributed program: 43 308 (of which 19 386 are comments and separators) Nature of physical problem The nuclear mean-field and an analysis of its symmetries in realistic cases are the main ingredients of a description of nuclear states. Within the Local Density Approximation, or for a zero-range velocity-dependent Skyrme interaction, the nuclear mean-field is local and velocity dependent. The locality allows for an effective and fast solution of the self-consistent Hartree-Fock equations, even for heavy nuclei, and for various nucleonic (n-particle n-hole) configurations, deformations, excitation energies, or angular momenta. Similar Local Density Approximation in the particle-particle channel, which is equivalent to using a zero-range interaction , allows for a simple implementation of pairing effects within the Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov method. Method of solution The program uses the Cartesian harmonic oscillator basis to expand single-particle or single-quasiparticle wave functions of neutrons and protons interacting by means of the Skyrme effective interaction and zero-range pairing interaction. The expansion coefficients are determined by the iterative diagonalization of the mean field Hamiltonians or Routhians which depend non-linearly on the local neutron and proton densities. Suitable constraints are used to obtain states corresponding to a given configuration, deformation or angular momentum. The method of solution has been presented in: J. Summary of revisions 1. Two insignificant errors have been corrected. 2. Breaking of all the …
