Deformed Brueckner-Hartree-Fock calculation for light nuclei

For the first time the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock (BHF) method was applied to nuclei whose intrinsic structure is nonspherical. One aim was to investigate whether the energy dependent reaction matrix calculated from a realistic nucleon-nucleon interaction leads to deformations similar to, or different from, those obtained from energy independent interactions in Hartree-Fock (HF) calculations. Reaction matrix elements were calculated as a function of starting energy for the Hamada-Johnston interaction, using a Pauli operator appropriate to O-16 and a shifted oscillator spectrum for virtual excited states. Binding energies, single-particle energies, radii, and shape deformations of the intrinsic state in unrenormalized as well as renormalized BHF are discussed and compared with previous HF studies. Results are presented for C-12, O-16, and Ne-20.
