Excerpt from Variational Studies of the Few Body Nucleus
Of the particle distances. A function which is usually chosen is a gaussian, for then most integrals can be done exactly. A simple gaussian, however, gives a very poor result for the binding energy.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the exciting world of nuclear physics, exploring the intricacies of the few-body nucleus through the lens of variational studies. The author meticulously sets up a model of the nucleus, consisting of three or four nucleons interacting via a central, two-body Gaussian potential, and delves into the fascinating world of polarized gaussian wave functions. The text elegantly demonstrates how these wave functions can be strategically employed to enhance the accuracy of variational calculations. The book is more than just a collection of equations and mathematical techniques; it's a testament to the power of abstract thinking and the elegance of mathematics. The author skillfully guides readers through the conceptual framework of this approach, illuminating the profound connection between abstract ideas and the real-world phenomena they describe. These insights serve as a beacon, illuminating the path toward a deeper understanding of nuclear physics. Overall, this book offers a captivating journey into the realm of nuclear physics, providing invaluable tools and concepts for researchers and students alike. Its comprehensive treatment of variational studies, coupled with the author's clear and engaging writing style, makes it an indispensable resource for anyone seeking to unravel the mysteries of the nucleus.
