A Skyrme-like effective interaction is built up from the equation of state of nuclear matter. The latter is calculated in the framework of the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approximation with two and three body forces. A complete Skyrme…
We study the effect of time-odd components of the Skyrme energy density functionals on the ground state of finite nuclei and in nuclear matter. The spin-density dependent terms, which have been recently proposed as an extension of the…
We further progress along the line of Ref. [Phys. Rev. {\bf A 94}, 043614 (2016)] where a functional for Fermi systems with anomalously large $s$-wave scattering length $a_s$ was proposed that has no free parameters. The functional is…
