Abstract

The validity of Strutinsky's theory of renormalization is examined by comparing its predictions with those of a Hartree-Fock (HF) calculation for the nucleus $^{32}\mathrm{S}$. Very good agreement is obtained if the single-particle states from the HF calculation are used in the Strutinsky calculation. For a conventional Strutinsky calculation using a phenomenological Nilsson potential, agreement with HF results is not as good. The latter agreement is improved if one treats the quadrupole moment of the density rather than that of the average potential as the independent variable.
