Microscopic calculations of 6He and 6Li with real-time evolution method

Abstract

The low-lying cluster states of 6He (a+n+n) and 6Li (a+n+p) are calculated by the real-time evolution method (REM) which generates basis wave functions for the generator coordinate method (GCM) from the equation of motion of Gaussian wave packets. The 0+ state of 6He as well as the 1+, 0+ and 3+ states of 6Li are calculated as a benchmark. We also calculate the root-mean-square (r.m.s.) radii of the point matter, the point proton, and the point neutron of these states, particularly for the study of the halo characters of these two nuclei. It is shown that REM can be one constructive way for generating effective basis wave functions in GCM calculations.
