Quantum-Information Content of Fractional Occupation Probabilities in Nuclei

英文摘要：

Three measures of the information content of a probability distribution are briefly reviewed. They are applied to fractional occupation probabilities in light nuclei, taking into account short-range correlations. The effect of short-range correlations is to increase the information entropy (or disorder) of nuclei, comparing with the independent particle model. It is also indicated that the information entropy can serve as a sensitive index of order and short-range correlations in nuclei. It is concluded that increasing $Z$, the information entropy increases i.e. the disorder of the nucleus increases for all measures of information considered in the present work.
