Nuclear collective excitation such as giant resonances provides valuable information on understanding the structure of finite nuclei and the equation of state for infinite nuclear matter. The quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA) is a suitable theoretical framework that is capable of describing collective excitation as a superposition of the two-quasiparticle excitation, but it...
The generator coordinate method (GCM) has been a well-known method to describe nuclear collective motions [1]. In GCM, one a priori specifies collective degrees of freedom (collective coordinates), such as nuclear deformations, and superposes many Slater determinants (SDs) within the selected collective subspace. However, there always exists arbitrariness in this approach in the choice of...
