Influence of the momentum dependence of nuclear interactions on heavy-ion potentials

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyse the momentum dependence of nucleus-nucleus interactions and compare the predictions for this dependence obtained from nonrelativistic Skyrme forces, from relativistic mean field models and from phenomenological ansatze used in data analyses.

Combination of complex momentum representation and Green's function methods in relativistic mean-field theory

TL;DR: In this article, the complex momentum representation method with the Green's function was combined with the relativistic mean field framework to establish the RMF-CMR-GF approach to study the halo structure of resonant states.

Linear response and Friedel oscillations of the pion field in relativistic nuclear matter

TL;DR: In this paper, the linear response of a relativistic plasma of nucleons interacting through the exchange of scalar (σ) and vector-isoscalar (ω) mesons in the framework of a QHD model is analyzed.

Vacuum polarization in a relativistic description of open shell nuclei

TL;DR: In this paper, vacuum polarization is taken into account for the relativistic description of finite superfluid and deformed nuclei in the one-loop approximation, and it is found that the non-linear terms induced by the renormalization process lead to an improvement in the agreement with experimental deformation parameters.

Detail study of application of the relativistic mean-field effective NN forces for heavy-ion fusion within a dynamical model

TL;DR: In this article, the relativistic effects are considered in the analysis of the heavy-ion above-barrier fusion cross-sections of complex nuclei, and the nucleus-nucleus interaction potential is obtained using the double-folding model with six different effective nucleonnucleon (NN) forces coming from the Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) theory.

On Massive neutron cores

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the gravitational equilibrium of masses of neutrons, using the equation of state for a cold Fermi gas, and general relativity, and showed that for masses under 1/3, there are no static equilibrium solutions.

Static Solutions of Einstein's Field Equations for Spheres of Fluid

TL;DR: In this article, a method is developed for treating Einstein's field equations, applied to static spheres of fluid, in such a manner as to provide explicit solutions in terms of known analytic functions.

On Continued Gravitational Contraction

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the solutions of the gravitational field equations which describe the contraction of a heavy star, and give general and qualitative arguments on the behavior of the metrical tensor as the contraction progresses.
