Shell model on a random gaussian basis

arXiv:nucl-th/9403016 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.50.R1292

Abstract

Pauli-projected random gaussians are used as a representation to solve the shell model equations. The elements of the representation are chosen by a variational procedure. This scheme is particularly suited to describe cluster formation and cluster decay in nuclei. It overcomes the basis-size problem of the ordinary shell model and the technical difficulties of the cluster-configuration shell model. The model reproduces the $α$-decay width of $^{212}$Po satisfactorily.
