Abstract
Using the generator coordinate method and the gaussian overlap approximation we derived the collective Schrödinger-type equation starting from a microscopic single-particle plus pairing hamiltonian for one kind of particle. The BCS wave function was used as the generator function. The pairing energy-gap parameter Δ and the gauge transformation angle ø were taken as the generator coordinates. Numerical results have been obtained for the full and the mean-field pairing hamiltonians and compared with the cranking estimates. A significant role played by the zero-point energy correction in the collective pairing potential is found. The ground-state energy dependence on the pairing strength agrees very well with the exact solution of the Richardson model for a set of equidistant doubly-degenerate single-particle levels.
