Nilsson mean-field plus the extended pairing model description of rare earth nuclei

The Nilsson mean-field plus the extended pairing model for well-deformed nuclei is applied to some representative rare earth examples. The binding energies, some low-lying pair-excited states and even-odd mass differences of Er, Yb and Hf isotopes are calculated systematically within the proton frozen-pair excitation limit. A comparison with experimental data for these nuclei shows that the results of the extended pairing model are better than those for the standard pairing model with the BCS approximation and the nearest-orbit pairing model.     

Azimuthal correlations of hadrons and fragments in nucleus-nucleus collisions

Two-particle (two-fragment) azimuthal correlation functions are studied by using a simple formula which describes uniformly azimuthal distributions of final-state charged particles and nuclear fragments. This formula is obtained in the framework of a multi-source thermal model (or multi-source ideal gas model). The calculated results are compared and found to be in agreement with the experimental data of charged hadrons and nuclear fragments in nucleus-nucleus collisions at intermediate and high energies.     

Systematic description of nuclear electric quadrupole moments

The nuclear electric quadrupole moment(NQM) is one of the fundamental bulk properties of the nucleus with which nuclear deformations can be investigated. The number of measured NQMs is significantly less than that of known masses, and there is still no global NQM formula for all bound nuclei. In this paper, we propose an analytical formula, which includes the shell corrections and which is the function of the charge number, mass number, spin,charge radius, and nuclear deformation, for calculating the NQMs of all bound nuclei. Our calculated NQMs of 524 nuclei in their ground states are reasonable compared to the experimental data based on the nuclear deformation parameters derived from the Weizs¨acker-Skyrme(WS) nuclear mass models. Smaller rms deviations between the calculated NQMs and experimental data indicate that the deformation parameters predicted from the WS mass models are reasonable. In addition, 161 unmeasured NQMs with known spins are also predicted with the proposed formula.     

Released energy formula for proton radioactivity based on the liquid-drop model

In this work, based on the liquid-drop model and considering the shell correction, we propose a simple formula to calculate the released energy of proton radioactivity(Q_p). The parameters of this formula are obtained by fitting the experimental data of 29 nuclei with proton radioactivity from ground state. The standard deviation between the theoretical values and experimental ones is only 0.157 Me V. In addition, we extend this formula to calculate 51 proton radioactivity candidates in region 51≤Z≤83 taken from the latest evaluated atomic mass table AME2016 and compared with the Q_p calculated by WS4 and HFB-29. The calculated results indicate that the evaluation ability of this formula for Q_p is inferior to WS4 while better than HFB-29.     

Finite Nuclei in a Relativistic mean—Field Theory with quadratic Couplings

A quadratic scalar and vector coupling model proposed recently has been applied to finite nuclei.The calculated results are compared with those of the derivative scalar couling(DSC) model and the nonlinear Walecka model,The results show that the spin-orbit splittings are improved considerably by quadratic ouplings in contrast to the DSC model,However,the binding energy per nucleon,rms charge radius,as well as the spin-orbit splittings in the quadratic model are still small compared with those given by the nonlinear Walecka model and the experimental data.     

α decay energies and half-lives from a macroscopic-microscopic model

α decay energies of 323 heavy nuclei with Z≥82 are evaluated with a macroscopic-microscopic model. In this model, the macroscopic part is treated by the continuous medium model and the microscopic part consists of shell and pairing corrections based on the Nilsson potential. α decay half-lives are calculated by Viola-Seaborg formula. The results of α decay energies and half-lives are compared with experimental values and satisfactory agreement is found. The recoiling effect of the daughter nucleus on α decay half-life is also discussed.

An improved α-decay energy formula for heavy and superheavy nuclei

Based on the liquid-drop model and using the first derivative of the normalized Gaussian function to consider the shell correction, a simple α-decay energy formula is proposed for heavy and superheavy nuclei. The values of corresponding adjustable parameters are obtained by fittingα-decay energies of 209 nuclei ranging from Z = 90 to Z = 118 with N ≥ 140. The calculated results are in good agreement with the experimental data. The average and standard deviations between the experimental data and...     

熔合反应中入射道质量不对成度效应

The symmetric and asymmetric fusion reaction systems forming the same compound nuclei ^26Al, ^30Si, ^38Ar and ^170Hf are investigated with the frame of improved isospin dependent quantum molecular dynamics model. The entrance channel mass asymmetry dependence of compound nucleus formation is found by analyzing the shell correction energies, the Coulomb barriers and the fusion cross sections. The calculated fusion cross sections agree quantitatively with the experimental data. The results indicate that compound nucleus formation is favorable for the systems with larger mass asymmetry because of the smaller Coulomb contribution to the fusion barrier.     

Investigation of proton radioactivity with the effective liquid drop model

Proton radioactivity has been investigated using the effective liquid drop model with varying mass asymmetry shapes and effective inertial coefficients. An effective nuclear radius constant formula replaces the old empirical one in the calculations. The theoretical half-lives are in good agreement with the available experimental data. All the deviations between the calculated logarithmic half-lives and the experimental values are less than 0.8.The root-mean-square(rms) deviation is 0.523. Predictions for the half-lives of proton radioactivity are made for elements across the periodic table. From the theoretical results, there are 11 candidate nuclei for proton radioactivity in the region Z <51. In the region Z >83, no nuclei are suggested as probable candidate nuclei for proton radioactivity within the selected range of half-lives studied.     

Ionization energies and term energies of the ground states 1s22s of lithium-like systems

We extend the Hamiltonian method of the full-core plus correlation(FCPC) by minimizing the expectation value to calculate the non-relativistic energies and the wave functions of 1s22s states for the lithium-like systems from Z = 41 to 50. The mass-polarization and the relativistic corrections including the kinetic-energy correction, the Darwin term, the electron–electron contact term, and the orbit–orbit interaction are calculated perturbatively as first-order correction. The contribution from quantum electrodynamic(QED) is also explored by using the effective nuclear charge formula. The ionization potential and term energies of the ground states 1s22s are derived and compared with other theoretical calculation results. It is shown that the FCPC methods are also effective for theoretical calculation of the ionic structure for high nuclear ion of lithium-like systems.

Energy and fine structure of 1s2np(n≤9) states for lithium-like systems from Z=11 to 20

A new variation method is extended to study the atomic systems with higher nuclear charges and in more highly excited states. The non-relativistic energies of 1s^2np (n≤9) states for the lithium-like systems from Z=11 to 20 are calculated using a full-core-plus-correlation method with multi-configuration interaction wavefunctions. Relativistic and mass-polarization effects on the energy are calculated as the first-order perturbation corrections. The fine structures are determined from the expectation values of spin-orbit and spin-other-orbit interaction operators in the Pauli－Breit approximation. The quantum-electrodynamics correction is also included. Our results are compared with experimental data in the literature.     

η-nucleus bound states in nuclei

The binding energies η and widths Γη of η-mesic nuclei are calculated.We parameterize the η self-energy in the nuclear medium as a function of energy and density.We find that the single-particle energies are sensitive to the scattering length,and increase monotonically with the nucleus.The key point for the study of η-nucleus bound states is the η-nuclear optical potential.We study the s-wave interactions of η mesons in a nuclear medium and obtain the optical potential Uη≈ -72 MeV.Comparing our results with the previous results,we find that the ηN scattering length aηN is indeed important to the calculations.With increasing nuclear density the effective mass of the η meson decreases.     

Ground State Properties of Superheavy Nuclei in Macroscopic-Microscopic Model

The ground state properties of superheavy nuclei are systematically calculated by the macroscopic- microscopic （MM） model with the Nilsson potential. The calculations well produced the ground state binding energies, α-decay energies, and half lives of superheavy nuclei. The calculated results are systematically compared with available experimental data. The calculated results are also compared with theoretical results from other MM models and from relativistic mean-field model. The calculations and comparisons show that the MM model is reliable in superheavy region and that the MM model results are not very sensitive to the choice of microscopic single-particle potential.
