The correlated basis function theory is applied to the study of medium-heavy
doubly closed shell nuclei with different wave functions for protons and
neutrons and in the jj coupling scheme. State dependent correlations including
tensor correlations are used. Realistic two-body interactions of Argonne and
Urbana type, together with three-body interactions have been used to calculate
ground state energies and density distributions of the 12C, 16O, 40Ca, 48Ca and
208Pb nuclei.Comment: Latex 10 pages, 3 Tables, 10 Figure
