Correlation between nuclear radii and binding energies for light nuclei

Корреляция между радиусом ядра и энергией связи для лёгких ядер

Abstract

Deviations of measured total neutron cross sections from the “black-nucleus” formula were investigated for light nuclei, Similar trends in electrical charge radii suggest that the deviations are caused by variations in the nuclear radius parameter.,r 0. It was found that a definite correlation exists betweenr 0 and the binding energy per nucleon, ε, namelyr 0. ε≈11 MeV fm.

Резюме

Исследованы отклонения измеренного полного сечения нейтронов от формулы «чёрного ядра» для легких ядер. Подобные тенденции радиуса электрического заряда подсказывают, что отклонение причинен изменением параметра ядерного радиуса,r 0. Найдена определенная корреляция междуr 0 и энергии связи на нуклонε, именноr 0 ε≈11 Мэв fm.
