Abstract: | The effect of including the isospin non-scalar Coulomb interaction (also taking into account the finite proton size) in binding energy and rms radius calculations for the closed shell nuclei 4He, 16O and 40Ca is discussed in detail. Using the saturating Sussex matrix elements and including 0 + 2?ω excitations it is found that the major Coulomb contribution is in the first order, and that the pure second-order Coulomb contribution to the energy, near the saturation value of the size parameter for each nucleus, is more important than the mixed second-order contribution. Finally, for third order and above one can safely neglect the pure Coulomb contributions compared to the mixed ones which are in turn small compared to the pure nuclear contribution, in that order. |
