Title: Application of the Kishimoto-Tamura boson expansion theory to a single-j shell model

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

The boson expansion theory of Kishimoto and Tamura is applied to a single-j shell model. It is shown that this theory is quite accurate, giving results that agree very closely with those of the exact fermion calculations. The fast convergence of the boson expansion is also demonstrated. A critical discussion is then made of an earlier paper by Arima, in which he stated that the Kishimoto-Tamura theory gives rise to very poor numerical results. The source of the trouble encountered by Arima is unmasked.
