Spin-orbit interaction in Hartree-Fock calculations

Abstract

The contribution of the spin-orbit interaction in Hartree-Fock calculations for closed shell nuclei is studied. We obtain explicit expressions for the finite range spin-orbit force. New terms with respect to the traditional spin-orbit expressions are found. The importance of the finite-range is analyzed. Results obtained with spin-orbit terms taken from realistic interactions are presented. The effect of the spin-orbit isospin dependent terms is evaluated.
