The oscillator frequency in resonating-group-method calculations

For the example α-¹⁶O we present simple RGM calculations with equal (ω = ω′) and different (ω ≠ ω′) oscillator frequencies for the two nuclei. In the case ω ≠ ω′ and ω → ω′ the one-channel RGM space for angular momentum zero contains all ²⁰Ne states with four particles in the s-d shell and total spatial symmetry ($\text{[?] = [4]}$). These states form a basis for low-lying excited 0⁺ states of ²⁰Ne. The ω ≠ ω′ calculation (as well for ω → ω′ as for realistic ω, ω') exhibits, therefore, resonances corresponding to these states. We present also the calculation for ω = ω′ where these physically important resonances are missing.
