description

Quantum corrections to the mean-field equation of state for nuclear matter are estimated in a lattice simulation of quantum hadrodynamics. In contrast with the standard coordinate-space methods used in lattice QCD, the calculations are carried out here in momentum space and on nonhypercubic (irregular) lattices. The quantum corrections to the known mean-field equation of state were found to be considerable.
