Continuum Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory with Green's function method for odd-$A$ nuclei

Abstract: To study the exotic odd nuclear systems, the self-consistent continuum Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory formulated with Green's function technique is extended to include blocking effects with the equal filling approximation. Detailed formula are presented.To perform the integrals of the Green's function properly, the contour paths $C_{\rm b}^{-}$ and $C_{\rm b}^{+}$ introduced for the blocking effects should include the blocked quasi-particle state but can not intrude into the continuum area. By comparing with the box-discretized calculations, the great advantages of the Green's function method in describing the extended density distributions, resonant states, and the couplings with the continuum in exotic nuclei are shown. Finally, taking the neutron-rich odd nucleus $^{159}$Sn as an example, the halo structure is investigated by blocking the quasi-particle state $1p_{1/2}$. It is found that it is mainly the weakly bound states near the Fermi surface that contribute a lot for the extended density distributions at large coordinate space.
