Similarities and differences between nuclei and metallic clusters in the liquid-drop model

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The gross features of potential-energy surfaces of metallic, liquid clusters are compared with the corresponding properties of nuclei and their influence on the decay modes of excited systems is discussed. The interaction of two spherical, surface-charged droplets is compared with heavy-ion interaction potentials.
