Consistent relativistic mean-field models: critical parameters values

TL;DR

This paper analyzes 34 relativistic mean-field models to determine their critical parameters of symmetric nuclear matter, revealing correlations with incompressibility and comparing results with existing literature.

Contribution

It provides a comprehensive evaluation of critical temperature, pressure, and density for selected models, highlighting their relationships with nuclear matter properties.

Findings

Critical parameters vary across models and align with literature values.

Critical temperature correlates with incompressibility at zero temperature.

Models satisfy bulk nuclear matter properties while predicting critical behavior.

Abstract

We revisit the study published in [1], related to the behavior of 34 relativistic mean-field models, previously selected because they satisfy bulk nuclear matter properties, here used to compute the critical parameters of the symmetric nuclear matter. We evaluate their critical temperature, pressure, and density and compare with some values encountered in the literature. We also show that these parameters are correlated with the incompressibility calculated at the zero temperature regime.
