Uncertainty analysis and symmetry restoration in nuclear self-consistent methods
This thesis contains two articles, in the following denoted by I and II, and an introduction to
them. In Chapter 1, I present the theoretical models of nuclear structure. In Chapter 2, I introduce
the basic ideas about the density functional theory (DFT) and self-consistent mean-field
(SCMF) calculations. In Chapter 3, I give the formulae for the uncertainty propagation, which
is the error analysis method used in article I. As a proper tool to survey the predictive power
of theoretical models, the error analysis now has become more and more widely used. By analyzing
the propagation of uncertainties, one tries to find out the e ectiveness of the calculation
with a given parameter set obtained from optimization. In Chapter 4, I present the theoretical
framework of the Lipkin method used in article II. This method can be considered as an approximation
of the variation-after-projection method. In Chapter 6, I brie
y review the main
results of articles I and II. In the Appendices, I give some useful details and derivations.

Precision measurement of the magnetic octupole moment in 45Sc as a test for state-of-the-art atomic- and nuclear-structure theory
de Groote, R.P.; Moreno, J.; Dobaczewsk,i J.; Koszorús, Á.; Moore, I.; Reponen, M.; Sahoo, B.K.; Yuan, C. (Elsevier BV, 2022)We report on measurements of the hyperfine A, B and C -constants of the 3d4s2 2 D5/2 and 3d4s2 2 D3/2 atomic states in 45Sc. High-precision atomic calculations of the hyperfine fields of these states and second-order ... -
Impact of the surface energy coefficient on the deformation properties of atomic nuclei as predicted by Skyrme energy density functionals
Ryssens, W.; Bender, M.; Bennaceur, Karim; Heenen, P.-H.; Meyer, J. (American Physical Society, 2019)Background: In the framework of nuclear energy density functional (EDF) methods, many nuclear phenomena are related to the deformation of intrinsic states. Their accurate modeling relies on the correct description of the ... -
A Self-Consistent Charge Density-Functional Tight-Binding Parameterization for Pt-Ru Alloys
Shi, Hongbo; Koskinen, Pekka; Ramasubramaniam, Ashwin (American Chemical Society, 2017)We present a self-consistent charge density-functional tight-binding (SCC-DFTB) parametrization for PtRu alloys, which is developed by employing a training set of alloy cluster energies and forces obtained from Kohn–Sham ... -
Higher-order energy density functionals in nuclear self-consistent theory
Raimondi, Francesco (University of Jyväskylä, 2011)In this thesis consisting of two publications and an overview part, a study of two aspects of energy density functionals has been performed. Firstly, we have linked the next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order nuclear ... -
Towards a novel energy density functional for beyond-mean-field calculations with pairing and deformation
Haverinen, Tiia; Kortelainen, Markus; Dobaczewski, J.; Bennaceur, K. (Jagellonian University, 2019)We take an additional step towards the optimization of the novel finite-range pseudopotential at a constrained Hartree–Fock–Bogolyubov level and implement an optimization procedure within an axial code using harmonic ...
