Spin-Orbit Splitting in Non-Relativistic and Relativistic Self-Consistent Models
The splitting of single-particle energies between spin-orbit partners in
nuclei is examined in the framework of different self-consistent approachs,
non-relativistic as well as relativistic. Analytical expressions of spin-orbit
potentials are given for various cases. Proton spin-orbit splittings are
calculated along some isotopic chains (O, Ca, Sn) and they are compared with
existing data. It is found that the isotopic dependence of the relativistic
mean field predictions is similar to that of some Skyrme forces while the
relativistic Hartree-Fock approach leads to a very different dependence due to
the strong non-locality.Comment: 12 pages, RevTeX, 4 new figs.in .zip format, unchanged conclusions,
