Auxiliary function approach for determining symmetry energy at suprasaturation densities

چکیده

Nuclear symmetry energy ${E}_{\text{sym}}(\ensuremath{\rho})$ at density $\ensuremath{\rho}$ is normally expanded or simply parameterized as a function of $\ensuremath{\chi}=(\ensuremath{\rho}\ensuremath{-}{\ensuremath{\rho}}_{0})/3{\ensuremath{\rho}}_{0}$ in the form ${E}_{\text{sym}}(\ensuremath{\rho})\ensuremath{\approx}S+L\ensuremath{\chi}+{2}^{\ensuremath{-}1}{K}_{\text{sym}}{\ensuremath{\chi}}^{2}+{6}^{\ensuremath{-}1}{J}_{\text{sym}}{\ensuremath{\chi}}^{3}+\ensuremath{\cdots}$ using its magnitude $S$, slope $L$, curvature ${K}_{\text{sym}}$, and skewness ${J}_{\text{sym}}$ saturation ${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{0}$ nuclear matter. Much progress has been made recent years constraining especially $S$ $L$ parameters various terrestrial experiments astrophysical observations. However, such expansions/parametrizations do not converge suprasaturation densities where $\ensuremath{\chi}$ small enough, hindering an accurate determination high-density even if characteristic are all well determined by experiments/observations. By expanding terms properly chosen auxiliary ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Pi}}}_{\text{sym}}(\ensuremath{\chi},{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Theta}}}_{\text{sym}})$ with parameter ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Theta}}}_{\text{sym}}$ fixed accurately experimental ${E}_{\text{sym}}({\ensuremath{\rho}}_{\text{r}})$ value reference ${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{\text{r}}$, we show that shortcomings expansion can be completely removed significantly reduced determining behavior ${E}_{\text{sym}}(\ensuremath{\rho})$. In particular, two different functions, new approach effectively incorporates higher $\ensuremath{\chi}$-order contributions converges to same much faster than conventional $\ensuremath{\lesssim}3{\ensuremath{\rho}}_{0}$. Moreover, still poorly constrained plays role these approach. The thus provides nearly model-independent constraint on Several quantitative demonstrations Monte Carlo simulations given.

Circumstantial evidence for a soft nuclear symmetry energy at suprasaturation densities.

Within an isospin- and momentum-dependent hadronic transport model, it is shown that the recent FOPI data on the pi;{-}/pi;{+} ratio in central heavy-ion collisions at SIS/GSI energies [Willy Reisdorf, Nucl. Phys. A 781, 459 (2007)10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2006.10.085] provide circumstantial evidence suggesting a rather soft nuclear symmetry energy E_{sym}(rho) at rho> or =2rho_{0} compared to the Ak...

Zero dimensional model for determining particle and energy densities of P-11B fusion reaction in radiotherapy

Three alpha particles are emitted from the P-11B fusion reaction. Alpha particles play an important role in the death of cancer cells. When boron is accumulated in the tumor, protons irradiated out of body can react with the boron in the tumor. Also a fast gamma ray of 719 KeV beam is released from the P-11B fusion reaction which plays a useful role for us. This therapeutic approach includes fe...

Symmetry energy at subnuclear densities and nuclei in a neutron-star crust

We examine how the properties of inhomogeneous nuclear matter at subnuclear densities depend on the density dependence of the symmetry energy. We focus on a parameter that characterizes the density dependence of the symmetry energy S(n) at about nuclear density n0. It is the density symmetry coefficient L = 3n0(dS/dn)n=n0 . From the saturation properties of stable nuclei, we find that the usual...

Quantum kinetic energy densities: an operational approach.

We propose and investigate a procedure to measure, at least in principle, a positive quantum version of the local kinetic energy density. This procedure is based, under certain idealized limits, on the detection rate of photons emitted by moving atoms which are excited by a localized laser beam. The same type of experiment, but in different limits, can also provide other non-positive-definite v...
