AbstractA Variational Monte Carlo (VMC) method is employed to investigate the properties of symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter. The realistic Urbana V 14 twonucleon interaction potential of Lagaris and Pandharipande was used to describe the microscopic interactions. Also, many body interactions are included as a density dependent term in the potential. Total kinetic and potential energies per particle are calculated for asymmetric nuclear matter by VMC method at various densities and isospin asymmetry parameters. The results are compared with data found in literature, and it was observed that the results obtained in this study reasonably agree with the results found in the literature. Also, the symmetry energy and incompressibility factor of the nuclear matter were obtained. The results obtained are in good agreement with those obtained by various authors with different methods and techniques.

Isospin Dependence

A phenomenological momentum dependent interaction (MDI) is considered to describe the equation of state (EOS) for isospin asymmetric nuclear matter (ANM), where the density dependence of the nuclear symmetry is the basic input. In this interaction, the symmetry energy shows soft dependence of density. Within the nonrelativistic mean field approach we calculate the nuclear matter fourth-order symmetry energy E sym, 4 (ρ). Our result shows that the value of E sym, 4 (ρ) at normal nuclear matter density ρ0( = 0.161 fm -3) is less than 1 MeV conforming the empirical parabolic approximation to the EOS of ANM at ρ0. Then the higher-order effects of the isospin asymmetry on the saturation density ρ sat (β), binding energy per nucleon K sat (β) and isobaric incompressibility K sat (β) of ANM is being studied, where [Formula: see text] is the isospin asymmetry. We have found that the fourth-order isospin asymmetry β cannot be neglected, while calculating these quantities. Hence the second-order K sat , 2 parameter basically characterizes the isospin dependence of the incompressibility of ANM at saturation density.

Urca Process

A recently developed effective relativistic theory for nuclear matter is applied to the description of the cooling process of baryon degenerate neutron star matter through neutrino emission considering direct URCA processes. In our approach nucleons and antikaon condensates interact with σ, ω, ρ, δ and ς meson fields. Our results indicate a substantial decrease of the critical threshold density for the URCA process. This is because the presence of these interacting degrees of freedom increase the proportion of protons, producing simultaneously the reduction of the isospin asymmetry in nuclear matter. Our results also indicate that neutron stars with larger masses than MNE ~ 0.9M⊙, which represents the stellar critical threshold (the mass of the neutron star whose baryon central density reached the critical density) would be cooled efficiently and be outside the possibility of observation by heat radiation in a few years.

Using an isospin- and momentum-dependent modified Gogny (MDI) interaction, the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock (SHF) approach, and a phenomenological modified Skyrme-like (MSL) model, we have studied the incompressibility K sat (δ) of isospin asymmetric nuclear matter at its saturation density. Our results show that in the expansion of K sat (δ) in powers of isospin asymmetry δ, i.e., K sat (δ) = K0 + K sat ,2δ2 + K sat ,4δ4 + O(δ6), the magnitude of the 4th-order K sat ,4 parameter is generally small. The 2nd-order K sat ,2 parameter thus essentially characterizes the isospin dependence of the incompressibility of asymmetric nuclear matter at saturation density. Furthermore, the K sat ,2 can be expressed as [Formula: see text] in terms of the slope parameter L and the curvature parameter K sym of the symmetry energy and the third-order derivative parameter J0 of the energy of symmetric nuclear matter at saturation density, and we find the higher order J0 contribution to K sat ,2 generally cannot be neglected. Also, we have found a linear correlation between K sym and L as well as between J0/K0 and K0. Using these correlations together with the empirical constraints on K0 and L, the nuclear symmetry energy E sym (ρ0) at normal nuclear density, and the nucleon effective mass, we have obtained an estimated value of K sat ,2 = -370 ± 120 MeV for the 2nd-order parameter in the isospin asymmetry expansion of the incompressibility of asymmetric nuclear matter at its saturation density.
