Microscopic description of induced fission in a configuration interaction approach
K. Uzawa, K. Hagino, G. F. Bertsch
Even though more than 80 years have passed since the discovery of fission, its microscopic understanding has still been unclear. To clarify the underlying mechanics of induced fiss…
Projection and ground state correlations made simple
K. Hagino, P. -G. Reinhard, G. F. Bertsch
We develop and test efficient approximations to estimate ground state correlations associated with low- and zero-energy modes. The scheme is an extension of the generator-coordinat…
Influence of higher-order deformations in the ^{34}S + ^{168}Er fusion reaction
C. R. Morton, A. C. Berriman, R. D. Butt +5
The shape of the measured barrier distribution for the ^{34}S + ^{168}Er reaction is analysed using the coupled-channels description. The ^{168}Er nucleus is a good candidate to te…
Sub-barrier fusion of drip-line nuclei
K. Hagino, A. Vitturi
We discuss the role of break-up process of a loosely-bound projectile in subbarrier fusion reactions. Coupled-channels calculations are carried out for Be + Pb and $…
Mean field theory for global binding systematics
G. F. Bertsch, K. Hagino
We review some possible improvements of mean field theory for application to nuclear binding systematics. Up to now, microscopic theory has been less successful than models startin…
Correlation energy of the pairing Hamiltonian
K. Hagino, G. F. Bertsch
We study the correlation energy associated with the pair fluctuations in BCS theory. We use a schematic two-level pairing model and discuss the behavior of the correlation energy a…
