Title: Nuclear Energy Density Functionals Speaker: Prof. Dario Vretenar (Department of Physics,University of Zagreb,Croatia) Time: 15:00 pm, Sep 15, 2010, Wednesday 2010年09月15日(星期三) 下午3:00 Place: Room 420, Accelerator Building of Peking Univ. 北京大学加速器楼420房间 Abstract: Among the microscopic approaches to the nuclear many-body problem, energy density functionals (EDF) provide the most complete and accurate description of ground states and collective excitations over the whole nuclide chart. The current generation of relativistic EDFs, using parameters adjusted to reproduce empirical properties of nuclear matter and bulk properties of finite nuclei, has been applied to studies of arbitrarily heavy nuclei, exotic nuclei far from beta-stability, and systems at the nucleon drip-lines. In addition to recent advances, future hallenges for nuclear EDFs will be reviewed. Arguably one of the most important is a fully microscopic foundation based on the underlying theory of strong interactions. When considering applications, equally important is to develop EDF-based tructure models that go beyond the static mean-field approximation. Detailed predictions of excitation spectra and transition rates necessitate the inclusion of correlations related to the restoration of broken symmetries and to fluctuations of collective variables.

Title: Atomic Nuclei at The Border of Stability Speaker: Prof. Peter Ring (Department of Physics, Technischen Universität München, Germany) Time: 15:00 pm, Sep 08, 2010, Wednesday 2010年09月08日(星期三) 下午3:00 Place: Room 408, Accelerator Building of Peking Univ. 北京大学加速器楼408房间 Abstract: Atomic nuclei are stable only in a relatively narrow range of neutron and proton numbers. Light systems are dominated by symmetric combinations.For heavier nuclei an increasing neutron excess is observed and the stability seems to be limited for large proton numbers. The origin of this stability and its limitations are discussed on the basis of simple principles of quantum mechanics and relativity and the properties of nuclear forces. Modern accelerators with radioactive beams allow the study of rare isotopes and such investigations are presently at the forefront of nuclear science all over the world. Many of these nuclei play an important role in astrophysical processes. Their properties decide upon the origin and the distribution of elements in the universe and on earth. Nuclear density functional theory provides an important tool for a theoretical description of these systems and for our understanding of the nuclear many-body problem in general. 报告人简介: 1965年毕业于慕尼黑大学物理学,1966年获硕士学位,1969年获慕尼黑技术大学博士学位。 1969-1973年任慕尼黑技术大学助理研究员。1973-1975年在美国Berkeley国家实验室从事博士后研究。1975年任慕尼黑技术大学理论物理讲师,1980晋升为教授。曾经担任PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 等刊物编委,1992年获得西班牙—德国科技合作Humboldt–Mutis奖,2005年为核物理海伦协会名誉会员。研究领域包括量子多体理论,原子核的转动和振动激发,奇特原子核,超重原子核以及协变密度泛函理论等。先后在PHYSICS REPORTS、PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS等学术期刊发表SCI论文近三百篇,SCI引用累计近万次,H因子为51。其专著《The Nuclear Many-Body Problem》自1980年以来多次重印,成为核物理学界最受欢迎的经典著作之一。

Title: Lecture on the Pairing Correlations in Nuclei: BCS and Bogoliubov Speaker: Prof. Peter Ring (Department of Physics, Technischen Universität München, Germany) Time: 15:00 pm, Sep 02, 2010, Thursday 2010年09月02日(星期四) 下午3:00 Place: Room 408, Accelerator Building of Peking Univ. 北京大学加速器楼408房间 Abstract: In this lecture, the pairing correlations in nuclei will be discussed.
