Abstract: The microscopic c. m. correction energies for nuclei ranging from oxygen to calcium are systematically calculated by both spherical and axially deformed relativistic mean-field (RMF) models with the effective interaction PK1. The microscopic c. m. correction energies strongly depend on the isospin as well as deformation and deviate from the phenomenological ones. The deformation effect is discussed in detail by comparing the deformed with the spherical RMF calculation. It is found that the direct and exchange terms of the c. m. correction energies are strongly correlated with the density distribution of nuclei and are suppressed in the deformed case.
Figure: Microscopic c.m. correction energies (solid lines) of nuclei ranging from Oxygen to Calcium in the spherical (a) and axially deformed (b) RMF calculations with the effective interaction PK1, in comparison with two phenomenological results (dashed lines). The solid lines from the left to the right respectively correspond to the isotopic chains from oxygen to calcium.
