Theoretical Nuclear Physics

我们提出了理论核物理在核结构和许多体问题方面的一个新的研究方向。我们将解决原子核组成及其相互作用研究中尚未解决的问题，考虑到相关关系对组成的物质、能量和动量密度分布的影响。我们将研究单粒子、少粒子和集体运动的迷人现象，并确定低激发能下原子核的静态和动态性质。我们将采用强相互作用粒子的多体理论，并利用格林函数、维格纳变换和动力学方程，发展计算原子核性质的形式化方法和数值技术。我们将研究原子核在稳定状态和远离稳定状态下的性质，特别是基态电荷和物质密度分布的同位素和等音依赖性，单粒子能量，巨共振的激发和衰变，以及不对称核物质的状态方程。我们将培养一名研究助理和三(3)名研究生，他们的博士论文将是研究计划的主要部分。在这次外展活动中，我们计划教育一名本科生。学生将被介绍到国际核物理研究的前沿和现代科学计算。

We propose a new research program in theoretical nuclear physics in the area of nuclear structure and many body problems. We will address unsolved problems in the study of the constituents of nuclei and their interactions, considering the effects of correlations on matter, energy and momentum density distributions of the constituents. We will study the fascinating phenomena of the single particle, few-particle and collective motions and determine the static and dynamic properties of nuclei at low excitation energy. We will employ the many body theory of strongly interacting particles and develop the formalism and the numerical techniques, using Green's functions, Wigner transform and kinetic equations, for calculating properties of nuclei. We will investigate properties of nuclei at and far from stability, in particular, the isotope and isotone dependence of charge and matter density distributions of ground states, single particle energies, excitation and decay of giant resonances, and the equation of state of asymmetric nuclear matter. We will educate one Research Associate and three (3) graduate students, whose Ph.D. dissertations will be a major part of the research program. In the outreach activity we plan to educate one undergraduate student. The students will be introduced to the forefront of international research in nuclear physics and to modern scientific computation.
