Abstract:

In order to investigate the many particle system by the variational principle, the cluster development method proposed by Jastrow is systematically formulated. It is a direct generalization of the Hartree method, in which two particle functions are included in the trial function to represent the correlations between particles. The energy expectation value is expanded in a series, each term of which is expressed in cluster integrals. It is found that the series converges rapidly when the correlations are marked only for small particle separations, so that this method is expected to be useful especially for the system of particles interacting through short range potentials with repulsive cores.
