Introduction Progress of computer resources Application of nuclear density functional theory (DFT) over the entire nuclear chart (statistical properties). We want to study dynamical properties based on DFT. The method: QRPA We choose first 2+ states Our Aim: 1) to assess strengths and weaknesses of the method by calculating as many nuclei as we can (even-even spherical) 2) to compare results with those of two other systematic studies that used different methods
Procedure 1. Choose a Skyrme parameter set. 2. Make a list of spherical nuclei initial candidates : even-even Ne - Th i) potential-energy-curve calculation (ev 8) ii) a few unconstraint calculations around Q=0 3. HFB calculation of spherical nuclei for QRPA (hfbmario) 4. Calculation of interaction-matrix elements 5. Diagonalization of QRPA Hamiltonian matrix. 6. Check of solutions
Creation operator of an excited state of QRPA: : linear combination of and of single-particle It happens that is a main component of Physically, it corresponds to a final state of particle transfer. We checked if the lowest solutions were really of the nuclei considered.
Approximate difference in particle number ΔN ≈ 2 : 40, 48 Ca, 68 Ni, 80 Zr and 132 Sn 40 Ca does not have ph-main solution up to tail of GR. 2 nd lowest solution of the other 3 nuclei : acceptable
Softness parameter Assume that matrix elements of a transition operator = 1 We define softness parameter: We wanted C=1 if Y are zero.

Summary • Systematic QRPA calculations have been done of first 2+ states of even-even spherical Ne–Th using two Skyrme interactions plus volume-type pairing interaction, and energies and transition strengths were investigated. • Skyrme QRPA is very good for energies of doubly-magic and near-doubly-magic nuclei. • Shortcomings of this method are i) there is no first 2+ state at 40 Ca to compare with experiment, ii) energy is overestimated, and transition strength is underestimated on average,
iii) energies of transitional and “well-spherical” regions are not reproduced simultaneously, iv) breaking of particle-number conservation affects energy on average, v) dispersion of discrepancy from data is not very small. • In comparison with other methods, it turned out that i) QRPA is better than the other methods for doublymagic and near-doubly-magic nuclei, ii) QRPA and GCM-5 DCH are better than GCM-HW in terms of energy, and iii) GCM methods overestimate both energy and transition strength on average. • List of spherical nuclei depends on interaction.
