Microscopic study of nuclear structure for some Si-isotopes using Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-method

Abstract EN

In this paper the nuclear structure of some of Si-isotopes namely, 28,32,36,40Si have been studied by calculating the static ground state properties of these isotopes such as charge, proton, neutron and mass densities together with their associated rms radii, neutron skin thicknesses, binding energies, and charge form factors.

In performing these investigations, the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock method has been used with different parameterizations; SkM*, S1, S3, SkM, and SkX.

The effects of these different parameterizations on the above mentioned properties of the selected isotopes have also been studied so as to specify which of these parameterizations achieves the best agreement between calculated and experimental data.

It can be deduced from this study that it is SkX parameterization that achieves such agreement.

Furthermore, comparison between the theoretical and experimental results of charge form factors has been performed
