On growth of spinodal instabilities in nuclear matter

Nuclear Theory 2015-01-26 v1

Abstract

Early growth of density fluctuations of nuclear matter in spinodal region is investigated employing the stochastic mean-field approach. In contrast to the earlier treatments in which only collective modes were included in the calculations, in the present work non-collective modes are also included, thus providing a complete treatment of the density correlation functions. Calculations are carried out for symmetric matter in non-relativistic framework using a semi-classical approximation.
