The Extended Nuclear Matter Model with Smooth Transition Surface

Solar and Stellar Astrophysics 2009-03-26 v1

Abstract

The existence of electric fields close to their critical value Ec=me2c3eE_c=\frac{m_e^2 c^3}{e \hbar} has been proved for massive cores of 10710^7 up to 105710^{57} nucleons using a proton distribution of constant density and a sharp step function at its boundary. We explore the modifications of this effect by considering a smoother density profile with a proton distribution fulfilling a Woods--Saxon dependence. The occurrence of a critical field has been confirmed. We discuss how the location of the maximum of the electric field as well as its magnitude is modified by the smoother distribution.
