Phenomenological optical model for p-4He elastic scattering

TL;DR: In this article, the results of a Dirac equation optical model analysis of p-4 He elastic scattering data are reported. And the optical potential obtained at 1029 MeV reproduces the systematics of p 4 He data over the energy range from 560 to 1730 MeV.

Potential energy surfaces of Gd-isotopes in a relativistic model

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential energy surface (PES) of the isotopes of Gd is computed using a quadrupole constraint, and the PES display the transition from spherical to deformed isotopes.

Mean field and pairing properties of nuclear matter in a quark–meson coupling model

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects on mean field quantities and nuclear pairing in symmetric nuclear matter of the density-dependent effective nucleon-scalar-meson coupling that is obtained in a σ − ω quark-meanson coupling model were investigated.

Three-loop corrections in a covariant effective field theory

TL;DR: In this article, the role played by the three-loop contributions to the loop expansion for quantum hadrodynamics was investigated, showing that the interactions of quantum had-ynamics are relatively soft, and that loop expansion may be manageable or even perturbative in nuclear matter.

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.
