Abstract

We present average stochastic time-dependent Hartree–Fock (ASTDHF) as a theory for efficient handling of incoherent dynamical correlations in finite fermion systems at fully quantum-mechanical level. The basic time evolution is given by time-dependent mean-field theory. The two-body collisions beyond mean-field propagation are evaluated stochastically in an incoherent ensemble of mean-field states as was done in the previously developed STDHF. The new, and time saving, feature in ASTDHF is that it employs one common mean field throughout the whole ensemble. A detailed presentation of ASTDHF is given and extensive comparison with STDHF and other approaches to dissipation are discussed. ASTDHF is found to be a very efficient approach for well bound systems where mean-field fluctuations remain small.
