Unrestricted symmetry-projected Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations for SD-shell nuclei

Abstact:

The solution of the Hartree–Fock–Bogoliubov problem with restoration of the broken symmetries before the variation has been generalized for the use of totally unrestricted quasi–particle determinants. With this method doubly–even, doubly–odd and odd nuclei can be treated on the same footing. Comparison with the results of complete shell–model diagonalizations shows that already one–determinant representations yield a very good approximation to the exact solutions even in the middle of the 1s0d shell. The problem is especially suited for numerical implementation on parallel computers. First tests show a linear dependence of the inverse CPU time with the number of processors used.
