Abstract

We proposed in Ref. [J. Phys. B 39, 13120 (2019)] a way to improve energy density functionals in the density functional theory based on the combination of the inverse Kohn-Sham method and the density functional perturbation theory. In this proceeding, we mainly focus on the results for the Ar and Kr atoms.

Highlights

  • The density functional theory (DFT) is one of the most successful approaches to the calculation of the ground-state properties of the quantum many-body problems including nuclear systems [1, 2, 3, 4]

  • In Ref. [5], we proposed a novel way to improve energy density functionals (EDFs) based on the combination of the inverse Kohn-Sham (IKS) method [6, 7] and the density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) [8, 9, 10, 11], the so-called IKS-DFPT method

  • The Wigner-Seitz radii rs calculated in the functional before and after the IKS-DFPT and the target one rstarget for Kr are shown as a functions of r in Fig. 2 with the dot-dashed, dashed, and solid lines, respectively

Summary

Introduction

The density functional theory (DFT) is one of the most successful approaches to the calculation of the ground-state properties of the quantum many-body problems including nuclear systems [1, 2, 3, 4]. Where T0 is the Kohn-Sham (KS) kinetic energy, Vext is the external field, and EH [ρ] and Exc [ρ] are the Hartree and exchange-correlation energy density functionals (EDFs), respectively [1, 2].
