Abstract
Pairing properties of infinite matter are surveyed that are obtained from self-consistent Green's function calculations. A complete treatment of off-shell propagation that incorporates the effects of short-range correlations is included. Mean-field calculations based on the BCS approach are superseded by the present results, which resolve a long-standing puzzle associated with 3S1-3D1 (proton-neutron) pairing in symmetric nuclear matter. Results for 1S0 pairing in pure neutron matter are in agreement with recent Monte-Carlo calculations for this system. The possibility of proton pairing in finite nuclei, as a result of increasing proton correlations with increasing nucleon asymmetry, is pointed out.
