Relativistic Mean Field in $A\approx$80 nuclei and low energy proton reactions

TL;DR

This paper applies relativistic mean field theory to nuclei around mass 80, comparing theoretical predictions with experimental data and calculating reaction S-factors for low-energy proton reactions.

Contribution

It introduces a comprehensive approach combining RMF calculations with microscopic optical potential generation and reaction analysis for nuclei near A=80.

Findings

RMF results agree with experimental binding energies and charge radii.

Calculated S-factors match experimental data for low-energy proton reactions.

Optical potentials derived from nuclear densities effectively predict reaction outcomes.

Abstract

Relativistic Mean Field calculations have been performed for a number of nuclei in mass $A\approx$80 region. Ground state binding energy, charge radius and charge density values have been compared with experiment. Optical potential have been generated folding the nuclear density with the microscopic nuclear interaction DDM3Y. S-factors for low energy ($p,\gamma$) and ($p,n$) reactions have been calculated and compared with experiment.
