We found the important role of the spatially compact nucleon wave packets to fully describe the nucleon correlations within the framework of the high-momentum antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (HM-AMD), which is a variational method based on the antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. In HM-AMD, short-range and tensor correlations between nucleons are described by nucleon pairs with high momentum (high-momentum pairs), which are given by putting large centroids of the Gaussian wave packets in opposite signs. In this paper, we further improve momentum distribution of the high-momentum pairs by varying the width parameter of the Gaussian wave packets of nucleons. We show the reliability of this new scheme by applying it to the 3H nucleus with the bare Argonne v8' potential. It is found that the spatially compact nucleon wave packets give the important effect to lower the total energy, which brings sufficient high-momentum components in the nucleus. We also include the spin-parallel configuration of the three nucleons induced by the tensor interaction, which is necessary to converge the HM-AMD results. Finally, comparable results to the other theoretical calculations are obtained for the total energy and Hamiltonian components.
