Three-Fluid Hydrodynamical Model of Nuclei

Abstract
A three-fluid model of nuclei is introduced, the three fluids being the protons, the neutrons of the same orbitals as protons, and the excess neutrons, to account for the fact that the excess neutrons interact less strongly with the protons than do the neutrons which occupy the same space-spin states as the protons. Calculations of proton and neutron density distributions, of isotope shifts, and of isospin impurities have been carried out. The giant-dipole phenomenon is also studied in the present model. It is found that considerable improvement is achieved in the results for the proton density distribution and for the isospin impurities as compared with the two-fluid model. The other results are found to be consistent with previous calculations.
