What Does GCM Stand For?
GCM stands for Generator Coordinate Method
The Generator Coordinate Method (GCM) is a theoretical framework used in nuclear physics and quantum mechanics to describe the structure and dynamics of many-body systems. By introducing a set of collective coordinates that represent the configuration space of a system, GCM facilitates the calculation of energy states and transition probabilities. This method effectively accounts for correlations among particles and allows for a more accurate representation of nuclear states, making it a valuable tool in the study of nuclear reactions and collective phenomena.
