Relativistic energy density functionals: Low-energy collective states ofPu240andEr166
The empirical relativistic density-dependent, point-coupling energy density functional, adjusted exclusively to experimental binding energies of a large set of deformed nuclei with A ≈ 150-180 and A ≈ 230-250, is tested with spectroscopic data for 166 Er and 240 Pu. Starting from constrained self-consistent triaxial relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov calculations of binding energy maps as functions of the quadrupole deformation in the β-γ plane, excitation spectra and E2 transition probabilities are calculated as solutions of the corresponding microscopic collective Hamiltonian in five dimensions for quadrupole vibrational and rotational degrees of freedom and compared with available data on low-energy collective states.

The Kaon-Photoproduction Of Nucleons In The Chiral Quark Model
In this paper, we develop a general framework to study the mesonphotoproductions of nucleons in the chiral quark model. The S and U channel resonance contributions are expressed in terms of the ChewGoldberger-Low-Nambu (CGLN) amplitudes. The kaon-photoproduction processes, γp → K+Λ, γp → K+Σ0, and γp → K0Σ+, are calculated. The initial results show that the quark model provides a much improved description of the reaction mechanism for the kaon-photoproductions of the nucleon with less parameters than the traditional phenomenological approaches.

Longitudinal transitions of baryon resonances in the constituent quark model
A longitudinal transition operator that satisfies the gauge invariance requirement is introduced in the constituent quark model. The corresponding longitudinal transitions from the ground state of the nucleon to resonances of the baryon are calculated. The study shows that the longitudinal coupling plays an important role in the understanding of the structure of the baryon.

Octupole degree of freedom for nuclei near 152Sm in a reflection-asymmetric relativistic mean-field approach
The potential energy surfaces of even-even isotopes near 152Sm are investigated within the constrained reflection-asymmetric relativistic mean-field approach using parameter sets PK1 and NL3. It is shown that the critical-point candidate nucleus 152Sm marks the shape/phase transition not only from U(5) to SU(3) symmetry, but also from the octupole deformed ground state in 150Sm to the quadrupole deformed ground state in 154Sm. The important role of the octupole deformation driving pair (?2f7/2, ?1i13/2) is demonstrated based on the components of the single-particle levels near the Fermi surface. In addition, the patterns of both the proton and the neutron octupole deformation driving pairs (?2f7/2, ?1i13/2) and (?2d5/2, ?1h11/2) are investigated.

Applications of Skyrme energy-density functional to fusion reactions spanning the fusion barriers
Abstract The Skyrme energy density functional has been applied to the study of heavy-ion fusion reactions. The barriers for fusion reactions are calculated by the Skyrme energy density functional with proton and neutron density distributions determined by using restricted density variational (RDV) method within the same energy density functional together with semi-classical approach known as the extended semi-classical Thomas–Fermi method. Based on the fusion barrier obtained, we propose a parametrization of the empirical barrier distribution to take into account the multi-dimensional character of real barrier and then apply it to calculate the fusion excitation functions in terms of barrier penetration concept. A large number of measured fusion excitation functions spanning the fusion barriers can be reproduced well. The competition between suppression and enhancement effects on sub-barrier fusion caused by neutron-shell-closure and excess neutron effects is studied.

THE DYNAMICAL ISOSPIN EFFECT ON PROTON-INDUCED REACTIONS ON Sn ISOTOPES
In this talk we present a model, Improved Quantum Molecular Dynamics (ImQMD05) model incorporated with a Statistical Decay Model (SDM), to describe intermediate energy proton induced spallation reactions. A good agreement with experimental data of double differential cross sections of emitted neutrons is obtained. We further apply this model to study the isospin effect in proton induced spallation reactions on a series Sn isotope targets. We find that the systematic behavior of the reaction cross sections for Sn isotope targets deviates from the empirical expression obtained by fitting the experimental data for proton induced spallation reactions on target nuclei along β-stability line. The extent of the deviation depends on the density dependence of the symmetry energy strongly. We also find an obvious shift of the elastic scattering angular distribution of emitted protons when the symmetry energy is taken into account for neutron-rich Sn isotope targets and the angle shifted strongly depends on the stiffness of the symmetry energy. The attractive effect of the symmetry potential of target on incident proton directly influences the motion of the incident proton leading to strong isospin effect on the reaction dynamics and thus on these reaction observables. We conclude that the measurement of reaction cross sections and the elastic scattering angular distributions in proton induced spallation reactions on Sn isotopes can provide clear constraint for the density dependence of symmetry energy.

Effect of isospin-dependent cluster recognition on the observables in heavy ion collisions
We introduce isospin dependence in the cluster recognition algorithms used in the quantum molecular dynamics model to describe fragment formation in heavy ion collisions. This change reduces the yields of emitted nucleons and enhances the yields of fragments, especially heavier fragments. The enhancement of neutron-rich lighter fragments mainly occurs at midrapidity. Consequently, isospin-dependent observables, such as isotope distributions, yield ratios of n/p, t/ 3 He, and isoscaling parameters are affected. We also investigate how equilibration in heavy ion collisions is affected by this change.

Towards a Self-Consistent Description of the Relativistic Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck Approach
The heavy ion collisions (HIC) provide a unique opportunity to study the time evolution process of nuclear matter under violent collisions as well as nuclear properties under extreme conditions of high density and temperature. However, the interesting informations on these problems can only be obtained indirectly through certain theoretical models. Thus, one has to choose a good theoretical tool, which should be as general and basic as possible on the one hand and as practicable as possible on the other hand. The most ambitious one is to obtain the relativistic transport equation starting from the time dependent Bruckner G-matrix theory1. In this approach the time evolution of the HIC process is described by relativistic kinetic equation and the G-matrix served as a dynamical input of the two body interaction. Therefore, to acquire complete numerical solution will be very difficult and till now there has no real calculation which fulfills this requirement.

Nuclear symmetry potential in the relativistic impulse approximation
Using the relativistic impulse approximation with the Love-Franey NN scattering amplitude developed by Murdock and Horowitz, we investigate the low-energy (100{<=}E{sub kin}{<=}400 MeV) behavior of the nucleon Dirac optical potential, the Schroedinger-equivalent potential, and the nuclear symmetry potential in isospin asymmetric nuclear matter. We find that the nuclear symmetry potential at fixed baryon density decreases with increasing nucleon energy. In particular, the nuclear symmetry potential at saturation density changes from positive to negative values at nucleon kinetic energy of about 200 MeV. Furthermore, the obtained energy and density dependence of the nuclear symmetry potential is consistent with those of the isospin- and momentum-dependent MDI interaction with x=0, which has been found to describe reasonably well both the isospin diffusion data from heavy-ion collisions and the empirical neutron-skin thickness of {sup 208}Pb.
