Microscopic nuclear models for open-shell nuclei
Herko, Jakub ; Knapp, František (advisor)
Title: Microscopic nuclear models for open-shell nuclei Author: Jakub Herko Institute: Institute of Particle and Nuclear Physics Supervisor: Mgr. František Knapp, Ph.D., Institute of Particle and Nuclear Physics Abstract: Since the nucleus is a quantum many-body system consisting of con- stituents whose mutual interaction is not satisfactorily known, it is necessary to use approximate methods when describing the nucleus. Basic approximate approaches in the microscopic theory of the nucleus are the Hartree-Fock the- ory, Tamm-Dancoff approximation and random phase approximation. They are described in the first chapter of this thesis. The main aim was to develop mi- croscopic models for open-shell nuclei with two valence particles or holes. They are described in the second chapter, which contains detailed derivations of the relevant formulae. These methods have been numerically implemented. The re- sults of the calculations of the nuclear spectra and the electromagnetic transition probabilities are presented in the third chapter. Keywords: Tamm-Dancoff approximation, random phase approximation, open- shell nuclei, nuclear spectra, electromagnetic transition probabilities ii

Theoretical description of nuclear collective excitations
Repko, Anton ; Kvasil, Jan (advisor) ; Knapp, František (referee) ; Mareš, Jiří (referee)
Density functional theory is a preferred microscopic method for calculation of nuclear properties over the whole nuclear chart. Besides ground-state properties, which are calculated by Hartree-Fock theory, nuclear excitations can be described by means of Random Phase Approximation (RPA). The main objective of the present work is to give the RPA formalism for spherically symmetric nuclei, using the techniques of angular-momentum coupling. Various auxiliary topics, such as Hartree-Fock theory, Coulomb integral, center-of-mass corrections and pairing, are treated as well. RPA method is derived also for axially deformed nuclei. The derived formulae are then implemented in the computer code and utilized for calculation of some physical results. After thorough investigation of the precision aspects of the calculation, the following topics are treated as examples: toroidal nature of the low-energy (pygmy) part of the E1 resonance, giant resonances of various multipolarities in deformed nucleus 154Sm, and magnetic dipole (M1) transitions in deformed 50Cr.
