Successes and limitations of the QPMSuccessesIt is fully microscopic and valid at low and high energy.including the double GDR (Ponomarev, Voronov)

Limitations: Valid for separable interactions Antisymmetrization enforced in the quasi-boson approximation, Ground state not explicitly correlated (QBA)

Concluding remarks• The multiphonon eigenvalue equations

- have a simple structure - yield exact eigensolutions of a general H

• The 16O test shows that - an exact calculation in the full multiphonon space is feasible at least up to 3 phonons and 3 ħω.

• To go beyond - Truncation of the space needed !!! - Truncation is feasible (the phonon states are correlated).

- A riformulation for an efficient truncation is in progress

The multiphonon states are not linearly independent

and form an overcomplete set.
