Finite amplitude method for the RPA solution

arXiv:nucl-th/0703100 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.76.024318

Abstract

We propose a practical method to solve the random-phase approximation (RPA) in the self-consistent Hartree-Fock (HF) and density-functional theory. The method is based on numerical evaluation of the residual interactions utilizing finite amplitude of single-particle wave functions. The method only requires calculations of the single-particle Hamiltonian constructed with independent bra and ket states. Using the present method, the RPA calculation becomes possible with a little extension of a numerical code of the static HF calculation. We demonstrate usefulness and accuracy of the present method performing test calculations for isoscalar responses in deformed 20Ne.
