Hartree--Fock--Bogoliubov Approximation for Finite Systems

Abstract

Some general features of the spectrum of the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov equations are examined. Special attention is paid to the asymptotic behavior of the single quasiparticle wave functions (s.qp.w.fs.), matter density distribution and density of the pair condensate. It is shown that due to the coupling between hole and particle states,the deeply bound hole states acquire a width and have to be treated as continuum states. The proper normalization of the s.qp.w.fs. is discussed.
