Adiabatic time-dependent Hartree-Fock calculations of the optimal path, the potential, and the mass parameter for large-amplitude collective motion

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
The adiabatic time-dependent Hartree-Fock theory is reformulated in order to yield a simple differential equation for the collective path with accompanying simple expressions for the collective mass and the potential. Using three-dimensional coordinate- and momentum-space techniques and density-dependent interactions, the new adiabatic time-dependent Hartree-Fock formalism is applied to ..cap alpha..-..cap alpha.. scattering and correspondingly to the fission mode of /sup 8/Be. In the overlapping region the resulting collective mass deviates strongly from the reduced mass.
