O. Civitarese et M. Reboiro, COMPARATIVE-STUDY ON THE VALIDITY OF THE RENORMALIZED RANDOM-PHASE-APPROXIMATION, Physical review. C. Nuclear physics, 57(6), 1998, pp. 3062-3070
The consistency of the renormalized random-phase approximation (RRPA),
to treat correlations nearby a phase transition, is analyzed. The res
ults of the RRPA and its quasiparticle version (RQRPA) for monopole an
d quadrupole particle-hole excitations and pairing, vibrational modes,
are compared with exact results and with results of the conventional
quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA). The calculations are
performed in schematic models.
