Relativistic Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory with density dependent meson-nucleon couplings

Relativistic Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (RHFB) theory with density-dependent meson-nucleon couplings is presented. The integrodifferential RHFB equations are solved by expanding the different components of the quasiparticle spinors in the complete set of eigensolutions of the Dirac equations with Woods-Saxon potentials. Using the finite-range Gogny force D1S as an effective interaction in the pairing channel, systematic RHFB calculations are performed for Sn isotopes and N = 82 isotones. It is demonstrated that an appropriate description of both mean field and pairing effects can be obtained within RHFB theory with finite range Gogny pairing forces. Better systematics are also found in the regions from the stable to the neutron-rich side with the inclusion of Fock terms, especially in the presence of rho-tensor couplings.
