Esym ： at supra- and saturation density

At very low density (less than about ρ0/10), the clustering effects are very important, and the mean field model significantly under-predict the symmetry energy.

Cannot be that all the constraints on Esym (ρ0) and L are equivalently reliable since some of them don’t have any overlap. However, all the constraints seem to agree with:

Esym(ρ0) = 32.5±2.5 MeV L = 55±25 MeV

All the constraints on the high density Esym come from HIC’s, and all of them are based on transport models. The constraints on the high density Esym are elusive and controversial for the moment !!!

p. 9

Outline



So far (most likely also in future), essentially all the constraints on Esym have been obtained based on some energy density functionals or phenomenological parameterizations of Esym. Are there some universal laws (systematics) for the density dependence of Esym within these functionals or parameterizations? While more high quality data and more reliable models are in progress to constrain the high density Esym, can we find other ways to get some information on high density Esym? Can we get some information on high density Esym from the knowledge of Esym around saturation density?

p. 20

Outline



The symmetry energy Esym(ρ) and its density slope L(ρ) from sub- to supra-saturation density can be essentially determined by three parameters defined at saturation density, i.e., Esym(ρ0), L(ρ0) , and Ksym(ρ0) , implying that three values of Esym(ρ) or L(ρ) can essentially determine Esym(ρ) and L(ρ).

Using Esym (0.11 fm-3) =26.65±0.2 MeV and L(0.11 fm-3) =46.0±4.5 MeV extracted from isotope binding energy difference and neutron skin of Sn isotopes, together with Esym(ρ0) =32.5±0.5 MeV extracted from FRDM analysis of nuclear binding energy, we obtain: L(ρ0) =46.7±13.4 MeV and Ksym(ρ0) = -167.1±185.3 MeV favoring soft to roughly linear density dependence of Esym(ρ).

Accurate determination of Esym(ρ) and L(ρ) around saturation density can be very useful to extract information on high density Esym(ρ).

The neutron 3p1/2-3p3/2 splitting in 208Pb lies in the range of 0.8-1.0 MeVThe pressure of symmetric nuclear matter should be consistent with

constraints obtained from flow data in heavy ion collisions

The binding energy of pure neutron matter should be consistent with constraints obtained the latest chiral effective field theory calculations with controlled uncertainties

The critical density ρcr, above which the nuclear matter becomes unstable by the stability conditions from Landau parameters, should be greater than 2 ρ 0

The isoscalar nucleon effective mass m*s0 should be greater than the isovector effective mass m*v0, and here we set m*s0 − m*v0 = 0.1m (m is nucleon mass in vacuum) to be consistent with the extraction from global nucleon optical potentials constrained by world data on nucleon-nucleus and (p,n) charge- exchange reactions and also dispersive optical model for Ca, Ni, Pb
