CVII. The nuclear surface
Abstract
The basic ideas of Brueckner's self-consistent nuclear model are applied in a simplified, approximate form to the case of a finite nucleus. It is shown that it is possible to reconcile the observed values of surface energy and surface thickness, to explain the greater extension of the nuclear potential compared with the charge distribution, and also to fit the well-depth of the optical model for nucleon scattering.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In the citing paper
“Experimentally the process of multifragmentation leads to abnormally large fluctuations in the distribution of nuclei[161], these fluctuations becoming more pronounced as the critical temperature is approached.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
