Jellium correction to the critical condition of cluster fission within a Liquid Drop Model

TL;DR

This paper investigates how Jellium correction affects the critical fission condition in charged metallic clusters using a Liquid Drop Model, especially for small multicharged clusters.

Contribution

It introduces a Jellium correction to the fissionability parameter within the Liquid Drop Model, refining the critical fission condition for small multicharged clusters.

Findings

Jellium correction significantly alters the fissionability parameter.

The correction is particularly relevant for small multicharged clusters.

The modified model improves understanding of cluster fission processes.

Abstract

Jellium correction on the fissionability parameter is estimated within a Liquid Drop Model of the charged metallic cluster. This correction modifies the critical condition of fission and, it becomes relevant for small multicharged clusters.
