Predicting the single-proton/neutron potentials in asymmetric nuclear matter

Nuclear Theory 2009-11-10 v2

Abstract

We discuss the one-body potentials for protons and neutrons obtained from Dirac-Brueckner-Hartree-Fock calculations of neutron-rich matter, in particular their dependence upon the degree of proton/neutron asymmetry. The closely related symmetry potential is compared with empirical information from the isovector component of the nuclear optical potential.
