演題：Superheavy nuclei in the Quark-Meson Coupling model

場所：ウェスト1号館7階 物理会議室 (W1-A-723室)

概要：
The fundamental problem of low energy nuclear structure is the understanding the change of the free nucleon-nucleon force in the nuclear medium. Commonly used forces of the Skyrme or Gogny type, with their empirical medium density dependence, cannot be determined uniquely. Hundreds of such forces have been constructed, fitting their numerous correlated parameters to selected experimental data. We report a single, four-parameter form of the density dependent effective nucleon-nucleon force based on modification of the nucleon structure in-medium on the quark level, which represents a new paradigm for nuclear physics. The model yields results for the ground-state binding energies, electromagnetic properties and shapes of even-even nuclei, from the lightest to superheavy, in agreement with experiment within less than a few percent [1].
I will discuss the latest results obtained for binding energies, deformations and single-particle energies of even-even nuclei in the region of 100 < Z < 110 and their comparison with available experimental data. Extension of the model to nuclei with the atomic number up to 120, predicted shell closures and attempts to identify an island of stability in the superheavy region will be reported [2].
