Born-Oppenheimer Coupling Between Collective and Intrinsic Degrees of Freedom

摘要

The splitting of the nuclear Hamiltonian into a collective Hamiltonian, an intrinsic Hamiltonian and a coupling term is shown to be a solvable problem. The solution is equivalent to a change of representation, as examplifield by the multi-channel theory of nuclear scattering or the Born-Oppenheimer representation of molecular dynamics.
