| Popis: | We have systematically studied the surface properties, such as symmetry energy, neutron pressure, and symmetry energy curvature coefficient for Ne, Na, Mg, Al, and Si nuclei from the proton to neutron drip lines. The coherent density fluctuation model (CDFM) is used to estimate these quantities taking the relativistic mean-field densities as inputs. The Brückner energy density functional is taken for the nuclear matter binding energy and local density approximation is applied for its conversion to coordinate space. The symmetry energy again decomposed to the volume and surface components within the liquid drop model formalism to the volume and surface parts separately. Before calculating the surface properties of finite nuclei, the calculated bulk properties are compared with the experimental data, whenever available. The NL3* parameter set with the Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer (BCS) pairing approach in an axially deformed framework is used to take care of the pairing correlation when needed. The deformed density is converted to its spherical equivalent with a two-Gaussian fitting, which is used as an input for the calculation of weight function in the CDFM approximation. With the help of the symmetry energy, the isotopes 29F, 28Ne, 29,30Na, and 31,35,36Mg are considered to be within the island of inversion (Han et al. Phys. Lett. B, 772, 529 (2017). doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2017.07.007). Although we get large symmetry energies corresponding to a few neutron numbers for this isotopic chain as expected, an irregular trend appears for all these considered nuclei. The possible reason behind this abnormal behavior of symmetry energy for these lighter mass nuclei is also included in the discussion, which gives a direction for future analysis. |
