Title: Roothaan approach in the thermodynamic limit

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)

A systematic method for the solution of the Hartree-Fock equations in the thermodynamic limit is presented. The approach is seen to be a natural extension of the one usually employed in the finite-fermion case, i.e., that developed by Roothaan. The new techniques developed here are applied, as an example, to neutron matter, employing the so-called V/sub 1/ Bethe homework potential. The results obtained are, by far, superior to those that the ordinary plane-wave Hartree-Fock theory yields.
