Abstract
The effects of the restoration of Galilei invariance in the nuclear many-body problem on the energies of simple bound states are investigated. As examples we consider the oscillator ground states of 4He, 16O and 40Ca as well as the various hole states with respect to these reference configurations. Density-independent as well as density-dependent interactions are studied. It turns out that the full restoration of Galilei-invariance yields considerable contributions on top of the trivial 1/A effect resulting from removing the center-of-momentum part of the Hamiltonian.
