Abstract

A schematic separable-pair calculation using Morse potentials gives improved values for internal pair energies (e.g. no He4 bound state, Li6 excited states in close agreement with experiment). The mean square nuclear radius is related to the mean square nucleon separations as well as the external (pair c.m.) mean square radii; this provides the constraint on the external kinetic energy, which in principle allows the structure of a nucleus to be determined from the nucleon-nucleon potential. A calculation of nuclear radii from experimental binding energies and internal radii renormalized to a neutron-proton separation of 3.7 fm yields radii in qualitative agreement with experiment and provides a test of the "realism" of the potential used.

NUCLEAR STRUCTURE Separable pair method, Morse potential calculated nuclear radii for H3, He3, He4, and Li6.
