Weakly parametrized Jastrow ansatz for a strongly correlated Bose system

Abstract: We consider the Jastrow pair-product wavefunction for strongly correlated Bose systems, in our case liquid helium-4. An ansatz is proposed for the pair factors which consist of a numeric solution to a modified and parametrized pair scattering equation. We consider a number of such simple one-variable parametrizations. Additionally, we allow for a parametrizeable cutoff of the pair factors and for the addition of a long-range phonon tail. This approach results in many-body wavefunctions that have between just o… Show more

“…Although our work is devoted only to two interacting atoms, the solutions presented can be used as building-blocks for approximate methods dedicated to a larger number of particles. For example, similarly as it was done in different one-, [32][33][34] two-, 35,36 or three-dimensional, 37 one of the possible extensions is to use these two-particle solutions when variational ansatz of pair-correlated Jastrow wave functions are constructed. 38 Typically for this construction of the variational family, the corresponding two-body exact solution may serve as a prescription for trial wave functions.…”

“…Although this correction improves the accuracy of the static structure factor at small wave vectors, contributions to the energy are small because the interatomic potential is not long-range. Further improvements based on parametrical expansions are also possible [63]. In other systems, it may be very well the case where higher-order and long-range correlations are important, which must be addressed case-by-case.…”

“…It was shown in Ref. [61] that by doing so one obtains a better accuracy for the description of liquid helium which is a strongly correlated system. In our case the correlations are not so strong and we find that keeping the two-body value, m b = m/2, is sufficient for performing calculations.…”
