Abstract

The liquid drop model the shell model rotation and single-particle motion nuclear forces the Hartree-Fock method pairing correlations and superfluid nuclei the generalized single-particle model (HFB theory) harmonic vibrations boson expansion methods the generator coordinate method restoration of broken symmetries the time dependent Hartree-Fock method (TDHF) semiclassical methods in nuclear physics. Appendices: angular momentum algebra in the laboratory and the body-fixed system electromagnetic moments and transitions second quantization density matrices theorems concerning product wave functions many-body green's functions.
