Abstract
We study electroweak processes in complex nuclei within the framework of self‐consistent mean field theories including pairing and RPA correlations. We review the adiabatic time dependent Hartree‐Fock (HF) theory and its ability to simultaneously handle large and small amplitude modes. We apply the formalism to the study of single and double beta decay as normal modes of the system, allowing for collective deformation, using Skyrme density‐dependent two‐body interactions. We also apply the formalism to the study of parity‐violating electron scattering. We highlight nuclear structure issues that are crucial for the correct analysis of these processes, namely neutron densities and spectroscopic factors, whose proper knowledge and interpretation in stable nuclei is required to get reliable predictions on exotic nuclei.
