QRPA drawbacks

BCS state is not a QRPA ground state:

QRPA drawbacks (cont.)

QRPA ground state has a non-vanishing quasiparticle content:

What should we learn?

The description of the ground state should be made consistent with that of the excited states

One should go beyond QBA and not neglect the scattering terms

Summary

Page 18: 0 νββ nuclear matrix elements within QRPA and its variants

Conclusions

The RQRPA and the SRQRPA are more stable with growing dimension of the single-particle model space

The RQRPA reproduces the experimental data for higher values of the particle-particle force

The SRQRPA behaves like QRPA, but the collapse is pushed forward towards higher gpp values

Page 19: 0 νββ nuclear matrix elements within QRPA and its variants

Conclusions (cont.)

0νββ nuclear matrix elements can be accurately reproduced within QRPA, RQRPA and SQRPA by fixing the gpp value using 2νββ experimental data

For the closed and partially closed shell nuclei (48Ca, 116Sn, 136Xe) a further improvement in the description of pairing interaction is necessary
