Medium polarization effects on the superuidity of finite nuclei and of the inner crust of neutron stars
We review recent progress made in understanding the role of medium polarization on superuidity in finite nuclei and in the inner crust of neutron stars. The interweaving of collective and quasiparticle degrees of freedom is treated within the framework of Nuclear Field Theory, propagating the basic renormalization processes through the Nambu-Gor’kov equations. It is then possible to obtain quantit
