Independent clusters in coordinate space: An efficient alternative to shell-model expansion [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
A previous shell-model-style calculation for the ground-state energy of the 4He nucleus, based on coupled cluster techniques, was able to treat exactly the centre-of-mass motion. It is now recast in a precisely equivalent but vastly more computationally efficient form, directly in terms of coordinate-space correlation functions which are expanded in a Gaussian geminal basis and determined variationally. This reformulation further leads in a straightforward manner to a natural procedure for including higher-order correlations. Its implementation at even the simplest level produces a significant improvement in the already very good upper bounds achieved for the ground-state energy. Further extensions are also discussed.
