A finite-temperature Hartree-Fock code for shell-model Hamiltonians

Abstract

The codes HFgradZ.py and HFgradT.py find axially symmetric minima of a Hartree-Fock energy functional for a Hamiltonian supplied in a shell-model basis. The functional to be minimized is the Hartree-Fock energy for zero-temperature properties or the Hartree-Fock grand potential for finite-temperature properties. Various constraints may be imposed on the minima.
