Skyrme pseudo-potential-based EDF parametrization for spuriousity-free MR EDF calculations

Abstract

First exploratory steps towards a pseudo-potential-based Skyrme energy density functional for spuriousity-free multi-reference calculations are presented. A qualitatively acceptable fit can be accomplished by adding simple three- and four-body contact terms to the standard central plus spin-orbit two-body terms. To achieve quantitative predictive power, higher-order terms, e.g.\\ velocity-dependent three-body terms, will be required.
