Relativistic Thomas-Fermi calculations of hot nuclei

Relativistic mean-field calculations of {Lambda} and {Sigma} hypernuclei

“…The results for various A levels are displayed in Table II where our results are denoted by H*. Compared with the fully self-consistent RHA results the H* approximation systematically underestimates the A bindings which may be attributed to a surface energy that is somewhat too large within the RTF approach [15]. But as expected, the agreement is better for the larger mass number A and the deeper lying levels because in both cases the Thomas-Fermi assumption of locally constant fields is more valid.…”

Recent Progress in Quantum Hadrodynamics

“…Supernovae and neutron stars are studied together in [Su92]. Statistical properties are examined in [Vo92,Ra93], and collective modes at finite T in [Ni93]. Various aspects of relativistic heavy-ion physics are discussed in [Du95].…”

Semiclassical expansions of the relativistic nuclear Hartree-Fock theory at finite temperature

“…The proton vapour density decreases inside the nucleus only due to the electromagnetic repulsion of the charged nucleus 1221. From a physical point of view, one should separate the space into three different parts: a central region, where we have a homogenous phase that should be interpreted as a pure liquid phase, an outside region, where we have another homogenous phase that should be interpreted as a pure gas phase, and a surface region between both homogenous phases, where gas and liquid phases coexist [22]. For a rotationally symmetric nucleus this can be inferred from the behaviour of the normalized density dishibution function [20][21][22] f(R) = p s ( R ) / P s ( b W…”

“…These constraints on the vapour density are taken into account in the spectral representation of the Green function by multiplying the subtracted term, which represents the occupation propability related to the external vapour, with a weight function 1f(R), where f(R) is the normalized density distribution function of the rotationally symmetric nucleus [20, 211. This procedure has no effect on the T = 0 limit, which reduces to the expressions of 1161. The use of the normalized distribution function to define a central region within the nucleus, where no vapour exists, was suggested in [22]. in the next section we present the spectral representation of the one-nucleon Green function at finite temperature in an analoguous manner as in [17-191. The application to the zeroth order problem is straightforward.…”
