Abstract
The accuracy with which binding energies can be computed using the statistical approximation is shown to depend strongly on the symmetry character of the wave function when the forces are of the short range saturation type met with in nuclear theory. Recent calculations on the relation between the neutron excess in heavy nuclei and the saturation properties of nuclear forces are reinterpreted in the light of this result.Keywords
