Neutron halo in lithium nuclei: A relativistic mean-field approach

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik A Hadrons and Nuclei

Abstract

Relativistic mean-field calculations have been carried out for Li isotopes using the non-linear Lagrangian parameter set NL2. Both spherically symmetric and axially deformed cases are considered. The binding energies, charge, neutron and matterrms radii, one and two neutron separation energies have been calculated. The results are discussed and compared with the available non-relativistic mean-field results, with special reference toneutron halo in the recent experimental observations.
