Description of collective motion in two-dimensional nuclei; Tomonaga's method revisited

Four decades ago, Tomonaga proposed the elementary theory of quantum mechanical collective motion of two-dimensional nuclei of N   nucleons. The theory is based essentially on neglecting 1N against unity. Very recently we have given exact canonically conjugate momenta to quadrupole-type collective coordinates under some subsidiary conditions and have derived nuclear quadrupole-type collective Hamiltonian. Even in the case of simple two-dimensional nuclei, we require a subsidiary condition to obtain exact canonical variables. Particularly the structure of the collective subspace satisfying the subsidiary condition is studied in detail. This subsidiary condition is important to investigate the structure of the collective subspace.
