Symmetry energy in nuclear density functional theory

W. Nazarewicz, P. -G. Reinhard, W. Satula +1

The nuclear symmetry energy represents a response to the neutron-proton asymmetry. In this survey we discuss various aspects of symmetry energy in the framework of nuclear density…

Isospin-breaking corrections to superallowed Fermi beta-decay in isospin- and angular-momentum-projected nuclear Density Functional Theory

W. Satula, J. Dobaczewski, W. Nazarewicz +1

Background: The superallowed beta-decay rates provide stringent constraints on physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. To extract crucial information about the elect…

Microscopic calculations of isospin-breaking corrections to superallowed beta-decay

W. Satula, J. Dobaczewski, W. Nazarewicz +1

The superallowed beta-decay rates that provide stringent constraints on physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics are affected by nuclear structure effects through isos…

Surface-peaked effective mass in the nuclear energy density functional and its influence on single-particle spectra

M. Zalewski, P. Olbratowski, W. Satula

Calculations for infinite nuclear matter with realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions suggest that the isoscalar effective mass of a nucleon at the saturation density, m*/m, equals…

Isospin-symmetry restoration within the nuclear density functional theory: formalism and applications

W. Satula, J. Dobaczewski, W. Nazarewicz +1

Isospin symmetry of atomic nuclei is explicitly broken by the charge-dependent interactions, primarily the Coulomb force. Within the nuclear density functional theory, isospin is a…

Empirical Proton-Neutron Interactions and Nuclear Density Functional Theory: Global, Regional and Local Comparisons

M. Stoitsov, R. B. Cakirli, R. F. Casten +2

Calculations of nuclear masses, using nuclear density functional theory, are presented for even-even nuclei spanning the nuclear chart. The resulting binding energy differences can…

Odd-Even Staggering of Nuclear Masses: Pairing or Shape Effect?

W. Satuła, J. Dobaczewski, W. Nazarewicz

The odd-even staggering of nuclear masses was recognized in the early days of nuclear physics. Recently, a similar effect was discovered in other finite fermion systems, such as ul…
