Abstract

A new form of the two-body potential recently proposed has been investigated for its possible applications in nuclear calculations. This nonsingular force, chosen for its success in fitting scattering phase shifts, saturates nuclear matter at the correct energy and density, and yields small second-order corrections. It can thus be applied with confidence to Hartree-Fock calculations of finite nuclei. We study the closed-shell nuclei16O and40Ca and show that many of their basic properties can be reasonably predicted.
