Introduction The tensor force is important in nuclear structure. There remain many open problems to be solved. How does the tensor correlation change in neutron-rich nuclei? Shell evolution (Ostuka, PRL (2005)). The breakdown of the magic number in 11 Li (Myo et al.) The relation to the ls splitting in 5 He (Myo et al. PTP 113 (2005) 763)
The correlation to be included In the simple HF calculation, 2p-2h correlations are hard to be treated. beyond mean field modelWe need to include at least 2p-2h correlations to exploit the tensor correlation. beyond mean field model cf. Single-particle (H-F) correlation 2p-2h correlation
Charge- and parity-symmetry breaking mean field method Tensor force is mediated by the pion. Pseudo scalar ( ) To exploit the pseudo scalar character of the pion, we introduce parity-mixed single particle state. (over-shell correlation) Isovector ( ) To exploit the isovector character of the pion, we introduce charge-mixed single particle state. Projection Because the total wave function made from such parity- and charge-mixed single particle states does not have good parity and a definite charge number. We need to perform the parity and charge projections. Refs. Toki et al., Prog. Theor. Phys. 108 (2002) 903. Sugimoto et al., Nucl. Phys. A 740 (2004) 77; ; nucl-th/ Ogawa et al., Prog. Thoer.

Wave function ( 16 O, x T =1.5) Opposite parity components mixed by the tensor force have narrow widths. It suggests that the tensor correlation needs high-momentum components. s 1/2 proton dominant
Mixing of the opposite parity components in single-particle states If a next j=1/2 orbit is occupied newly, the mixing probabilities of the j=1/2 orbit reduce by a blocking effect. Mixing of the opposite-parity component may affect excitation spectra of nuclei. 0p1/21s1/2
Shell model calculation We perform the shell model calculation including 1p-1h and 2p-2h configurations to study the tensor correlation. inclusion of narrow-width single-particle wave functions The shell model calculation can treat the correlation which cannot be treated in a mean-field-type calculation. cf.

Summary We apply a mean-field model which treats the tensor correlation by mixing parities and charges in single- particle states (the CPPHF method) to oxygen isotopes. The opposite parity components induced by the tensor force is compact in size. (high-momentum component) We perform the shell model calculation up to 2p-2h states to 15,16,17 O. The tensor correlation energy becomes large by including Gaussian single-particle wave functions with narrow widths. The tensor correlation changes ls splitting and magnetic moments in 15,17 O a little in spite of its large correlation energy.
