We present results from a new ab initio method that uses the self-consistent Gorkov-Green's function theory to address truly open-shell systems. The formalism has been recently worked out up to second order and is implemented here in nuclei on the basis of realistic nuclear forces. Benchmark calculations indicate that the method is in agreement with other ab initio approaches in doubly closed shell 40Ca and 48Ca. We find good convergence of the results with respect to the basis size in 44Ca and 74Ni and discuss quantities of experimental interest including ground-state energies, pairing gaps, and particle addition and removal spectroscopy. These results demonstrate that the Gorkov method is a valid alternative to multireference approaches for tackling degenerate or near-degenerate quantum systems. In particular, it increases the number of mid-mass nuclei accessible in an ab initio fashion from a few tens to a few hundred.

Abstract
We present results from a new ab initio method that uses the self-consistent Gorkov-Green's function theory to address truly open-shell systems. The formalism has been recently worked out up to second order and is implemented here in nuclei on the basis of realistic nuclear forces. Benchmark calculations indicate that the method is in agreement with other ab initio approaches in doubly closed shell 40Ca and 48Ca. We find good convergence of the results with respect to the basis size in 44Ca and 74Ni and discuss quantities of experimental interest including ground-state energies, pairing gaps, and particle addition and removal spectroscopy. These results demonstrate that the Gorkov method is a valid alternative to multireference approaches for tackling degenerate or near-degenerate quantum systems. In particular, it increases the number of mid-mass nuclei accessible in an ab initio fashion from a few tens to a few hundred.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
