No-Core Shell Model Basics
Eskendr Gebrerufael - TU Darmstadt - Feb. 2016 4
construct matrix representation of Hamiltonian using basis of HO Slater determinants truncated w.r.t. HO excitation quanta Nmax
solve large-scale eigenvalue problem for a few smallest eigenvalues
range of applicability limited by factorial growth of basis with Nmax & A
adaptive importance-truncation extends the range of NCSM by
reducing the model space to physically relevant states
one of the most powerful universal exact ab initio methods
for the p- and lower sd-shell

flow equation for Hamiltonian:
use flow eqn. for normal-ordered Hamiltonian to decouple
the reference state from excitations
H in normal order w.r.t. to a given reference state [Kutzelnigg, Mukherjee]
Note:
choose generator to achieve desired behaviour:
use the numerically stable Imaginary Time [Morris, Bogner]

with flow parameter s

initial Hamiltonian does not reproduce the right ground-state in Nmax=0, but far enough evolved Hamiltonian does again nice monotonical convergence from above for 2+ seems not the case for 4+ (should go to larger value of flow parameter)

Egs [MeV]
IT-NCSM calculated using complete 3N interaction difference between NCSM+IM-SRG and IT-NCSM: induced many body and NO2B NCSM+IM-SRG can easily access larger model spaces since NO2B approximation IT-NCSM ground-state energies not converged yet

IT-NCSM NCSM+IM-SRG
ground-state energy perfectly converged for NCSM+IM-SRG two different classes of states
• fast Nmax convergence –> states with dominant Nmax=0 component • slow Nmax convergence –> states with dominant Nmax≠0 component

Summary
Eskendr Gebrerufael - TU Darmstadt - Feb. 2016 22
introduced novel many-body technique NCSM+IM-SRG
exploits the advantages of both approaches
IM-SRG decouples reference state from higher Nmax
extremely enhanced Nmax convergence
small Nmax≤4 sufficient to extract converged ground-state for
evolved Hamiltonians
NCSM+IM-SRG: variational principle valid for excitation energies
since ground-state converged

Outlook
Eskendr Gebrerufael - TU Darmstadt - Feb. 2016 23
o variation of several parameters: generator,
o consistent evolution radius, electromagnetic, … operators
o detailed analysis of the Hoyle state in 12C
o extend applicability of NCSM+IM-SRG to odd nuclei
• particle-attached or particle-removed formalism
(first study very promising)
• include non-scalar densities for the IM-SRG evolution
o include three-body operators in IM-SRG:
explicit or perturbative treatment
