Dynamical properties of the SeaLL1 Nuclear Energy Density Functional

Time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is currently the preferred method for tackling calculations of dynamic nuclear properties, given a properly formulated energy functional. However, exact calculations in this framework are computationally expensive. In this talk I consider the less expensive orbital free formulation of the recently proposed SeaLL1 nuclear energy density functional (NEDF), a minimal parameter functional. The dynamical properties of this functional will be discussed, such as the giant dipole resonance (GDR); particular attention will be paid to the effects of the entrainment term.
