Abstract
The total energy of many-nucleon system is expressed as a functional E[ρ p(r),ρ n(r)] of the proton and neutron densitiesρ p(r) andρ n(r), respectively. The distributionρ(r) of nucleons in the nucleus, which is essential to determine the energy functional, is chosen. The energy density formalism is applied to finite nuclei, and then the binding energies per nucleon together with the mean square radii, for some medium and heavy nuclei, are obtained. Finally the achieved results are compared with the corresponding experimental values.
