Short-range
correlations and momentum distributions in nuclei
Thomas Neff (GSI
Darmstadt)
Short-range correlations in light nuclei are investigated using
realistic interactions. Unitary transformations in the
similarity renormalization group (SRG) approach are used to
obtain effective interactions which allow to obtain converged
wave functions within the no-core shell model. For a consistent
description the SRG transformation has to be applied also to
observables. This is especially important for observables that
are sensitive to short-range or high-momentum physics. A prime
example are two-body densities that reflect
the short-range correlations and relative momentum
distributions.
