Exact sum rules with approximate ground states
Abstract
Electromagnetic and weak transitions tell us a great deal about the structure of atomic nuclei. Yet modeling transitions can be difficult: it is often easier to compute the ground state, if only as an approximation, than excited states. One alternative is through transition sum rules, in particular the non-energy-weighted and energy-weighted sum rules, which can be computed as expectation values of operators. We investigate by computing sum rules for a variety of nuclei, comparing the numerically exact full configuration-interaction shell model, as a reference, to Hartree-Fock, projected Hartree-Fock, and the nucleon pair approximation. Furthermore, these approximations yield reasonable agreement, which we explain by prior work on the systematics of transition moments.
