The State Dependence Calculation of Three-body Cluster Energy for Nuclear Matter

It is shown that the method of lowest order contrained variational (LOCV) which is based on the cluster expansion theory is a reliable many-body technique to calculate the nuclear matter equation of states. In this respect the state-dependence correlation functions and effective interactions which have been produce by LOCV calculation with the Reid Soft Core and $\Delta $-Reid interactions are used to estimate the size of higher order cluster terms such as the effect of three body cluster energy in nuclear matter. We find that the three-body cluster energy is less than 1 MeV beyond the nuclear matter saturation density and it has weaker density dependence than our previous calculation with the state-averaged coorrelation functions and effective interactions. Finally, we conclude that the LOCV method is good enough to calculate other propertiesn of quantal fluids
