Perturbation Procedure for Bound States of Nuclei

Abstract
The model of nucleons moving in a fixed harmonic oscillator well provides a convenient starting point for calculations on the structure of light nuclei. One complication, the nondiagonal energy operator associated with the motion of the center of mass, can be eliminated simply by adding the harmonic potential operator of the center-of-mass motion to the correct Hamiltonian operator of the system.
