“…In the applications of this method, however, this limiting situation is often not satisfactorily realized and it becomes necessary to calculate higher moments of the Hamiltonian, which is an increasingly difficult task [92,93]. This has prompted a search for various refinements of the method and for alternative approaches [25,26,29,30,94]. Pluhar and Weidenmfiller [26] have recently proposed a method which was originally introduced for calculations of fluctuation or transport properties in statistical nuclear reaction theory.…”
