Energy Density Functional Methods for Atomic Nuclei provides a detailed presentation of energy density functional (EDF) theory and gives insight into recent progress within this powerful approach to the nuclear many-body problem. Thanks to a better understanding of formal aspects of the theory and increasing computing power, EDF approaches have achieved the status of a versatile, accurate and predictive framework to study the structure and reactions of atomic nuclei. Topics covered with this book include:
· Non-relativistic and covariant energy functionals
· Single-reference and multi-reference energy density functional methods
· Time-dependent density functional theory
· Theoretical approaches to small- and large-amplitude collective motion
· Numerical implementations of EDF methods
· Parameter calibration and uncertainty quantification techniques
This comprehensive and informative exploration of EDF methods and is aimed at PhD students and researchers specialising in nuclear physics or theoretical approaches to quantum many-body systems. Incorporating detailed derivations, practical approaches, examples and figures, a coherent narrative of topics that have hitherto rarely been covered together is provided.
