The Extended Theory of Finite Fermi Systems (ETFFS) describes nuclear excitations considering phonons and pairing degrees of freedom, using the effective Landau-Migdal interaction and nuclear mean fields obtained from experimental data. Here we employ the nuclear mean field derived from Skyrme interactions and the corresponding particle-hole interaction. This allows to extend the range of applicability of the ETFFS to experimentally not yet investigated short-lived isotopes. We find that Skyrme interactions which reproduce at the mean field level both ground state properties and nuclear excitations are able to describe the spreading widths of the giant resonances in the new approach, but produce shifts of the centroid energies. A renormalization of the Skyrme interactions is required for approaches going beyond the mean field level. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
