Semi-empirical effective interactions for the 1 s-0 d shell

Journal Article · · Ann. Phys. (N.Y.); (United States)
Ground-state binding energies and excited-state energies of nuclei in the 1 s--0 d shell are analyzed in terms of a variety of two-body interactions. In addition to simple interactions such as the delta and surface-delta, we consider potentials of the finite-range, one-boson-exchange type for the central, tensor, and spin--orbit components of the interaction, with multipole terms added to the central part. The relative importance of these components, together with that of the antisymmetric spin--orbit component, is considered. The antisymmetric spin--orbit component is found to be the least important. Both density-dependent and density-independent interactions are considered. Our results favor a density-dependent form for the central and spin--orbit components. We develop a semi-empirical ''best-fit'' interaction based on a 14-parameter density-dependent two-body potential which reproduces 447 sd-shell binding-energy data to within an rms deviation between experiment and theory of 260 keV. This semi-empirical interaction is compared to typical G-matrix interactions as well as to the purely empirical interactions obtained by using two-body matrix elements for Talmi integrals as parameters of the fit. copyright 1988 Academic Press, Inc.
