SINGLE-PARTICLE ENERGY LEVELS BASED ON VELOCITY-DEPENDENT POTENTIAL

An effective velocity-dependent nucleon-nuclear potential based upon a relatively realistic N-N interaction has been used in this work. This effective potential has been approximated by the analytically solvable Morse function in a simple way. The neutron energy states characterized by the Morse parameters have been calculated for nuclides with 2≤A13≤7 using the independent-particle model. The Morse parameters have been expressed as functions of A and l. The single-particle energy levels obtained from this work have been compared with the available data and other theoretical and numerical results. © 1969 The American Physical Society.
