p-Shell Nuclei and Two-Frequency Shell Model with a Realistic Effective Interaction

Abstract

We have studied p-shell nuclei using a two-frequency shell-model approach with an effective interaction derived from the Bonn-A nucleon-nucleon potential by means of a G-matrix folded-diagram method. First, we briefly describe our derivation of the effective interaction in a model space composed of harmonic hoscillator wave functions with two different length parameters, b_in and b_out, for the core and the valence orbits, respectively. Then we present some selected results of our calculations. We show that a good agreement with experiment is obtained, which is definitely better than that provided by a standard one-frequency calculation. A comparison with results obtained from large-basis shell-model calculations is also made.
