Nuclear matter symmetry energy and the neutron skin thickness of heavy nuclei
Open accessAbstract
Correlations between the thickness of the neutron skin in finite nuclei and the nuclear matter symmetry energy are studied in the Skyrme Hartree-Fock model. From the most recent analysis of the isospin diffusion data in heavy-ion collisions based on an isospin- and momentum-dependent transport model with in-medium nucleon-nucleon cross sections, a value of $L=88\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}25$ MeV for the slope of the nuclear symmetry energy at saturation density is extracted, and this imposes stringent constraints on both the parameters in the Skyrme effective interactions and the neutron skin thickness of heavy nuclei. Predicted thickness of the neutron skin is $0.22\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.04$ fm for $^{208}\mathrm{Pb}$, $0.29\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.04$ fm for $^{132}\mathrm{Sn}$, and $0.22\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.04$ fm for $^{124}\mathrm{Sn}$.

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.
