Comparative study on charge radii and their kinks at magic numbers

Abstract

Isotope dependences of charge radii, i.e., isotope shifts, calculated by the Skyrme Hartree-Fock, the relativistic mean-field, and the relativistic Hartree-Fock calculations are compared against the experimental data of magic and semimagic nuclei. It is found that the tensor interaction plays a role in reproducing the ``kink'' behavior, irregularity of isotope shifts at the neutron magic number, in the relativistic Hartree-Fock approach. With several Skyrme models, it is found that the kink behavior can be reproduced with the spin-orbit interaction having nonzero isovector channel. The single-particle orbitals near the Fermi energy are crucial to determine the kink size. The effects of the symmetry energy and the pairing interaction are also discussed in relation to the kink behavior.
