Classical Lagrangian Model of the Pauli Principle
A classical Lagrangian model of the Pauli potential is introduced. It is
shown that the kinematic kinetic energy () in the model
approximately reproduces the energy of a free Fermi gas at low temperatures and
at densities relevant in nuclear collisions with moderate beam energies.
Differences between canonical and kinematic quantities are pointed out. The
Pauli potential can be used in transport simulations.Comment: Latex, 8 pages, 3 figures available on request from the authors,

New approach to He charge distribution
We present a study of the He charge distribution based on realistic
nucleonic wave functions and incorporation of the nucleon's quark substructure.
The central depression of the proton point density seen in modern four-body
calculations is too small by itself to lead to a correct description of the
charge distribution. We utilize six-quark structures calculated in the
Chromodielectric Model for N-N interactions, and we find a swelling of the
proton charge distribution as the internucleon distance decreases. These charge
distributions are combined with the He wave function using the Independent
Pair Approximation and two-body distributions generated from Green's Function
Monte Carlo calculations. We obtain a reasonably good fit to the experimental
charge distribution without including meson exchange currents.Comment: 9 pages, LaTeX, 4 figures (Figures 1 and 2 doesn't exist as

Compact Q-balls and Q-shells in a scalar electrodynamics
We investigate spherically symmetric non topological solitons in
electrodynamics with a scalar field self interaction U ~|\psi| taken from the
complex signum-Gordon model. We find Q-balls for small absolute values of the
total electric charge Q, and Q-shells when |Q| is large enough. In both cases
the charge density exactly vanishes outside certain compact region in the three
dimensional space. The dependence of the total energy E of small Q-balls on the
total electric charge has the form E ~ |Q|^(5/6), while in the case of very
large Q-shells E ~ |Q|^(7/6).Comment: 21 pages, 7 figure
Deconfinement Phase Transition in an Expanding Quark system in Relaxation Time Approximation
We investigated the effects of nonequilibrium and collision terms on the
deconfinement phase transition of an expanding quark system in Friedberg-Lee
model in relaxation time approximation. By calculating the effective quark
potential, the critical temperature of the phase transition is dominated by the
mean field, while the collisions among quarks and mesons change the time
structure of the phase transition significantly.Comment: 7 pages, 7 figure
New Global Defect Structures
We investigate the presence of defects in systems described by real scalar
field in (D,1) spacetime dimensions. We show that when the potential assumes
specific form, there are models which support stable global defects for D
arbitrary. We also show how to find first-order differential equations that
solve the equations of motion, and how to solve models in D dimensions via
soluble problems in D=1. We illustrate the procedure examining specific models
and finding explicit solutions.Comment: RevTex4, 4 pages, 3 eps figures; to be published in Phys. Rev. Let
The contrasting fission potential-energy structure of actinides and mercury isotopes
Fission-fragment mass distributions are asymmetric in fission of typical
actinide nuclei for nucleon number in the range
and proton number in the range . For somewhat
lighter systems it has been observed that fission mass distributions are
usually symmetric. However, a recent experiment showed that fission of
Hg following electron capture on Tl is asymmetric. We calculate
potential-energy surfaces for a typical actinide nucleus and for 12 even
isotopes in the range Hg--Hg, to investigate the similarities
and differences of actinide compared to mercury potential surfaces and to what
extent fission-fragment properties, in particular shell structure, relate to
the structure of the static potential-energy surfaces. Potential-energy
surfaces are calculated in the macroscopic-microscopic approach as functions of
fiveshape coordinates for more than five million shapes. The structure of the
surfaces are investigated by use of an immersion technique. We determine
properties of minima, saddle points, valleys, and ridges between valleys in the
5D shape-coordinate space. Along the mercury isotope chain the barrier heights
and the ridge heights and persistence with elongation vary significantly and
show no obvious connection to possible fragment shell structure, in contrast to
the actinide region, where there is a deep asymmetric valley extending from the
saddle point to scission. The mechanism of asymmetric fission must be very
different in the lighter proton-rich mercury isotopes compared to the actinide
region and is apparently unrelated to fragment shell structure. Isotopes
lighter than Hg have the saddle point blocked from a deep symmetric
valley by a significant ridge. The ridge vanishes for the heavier Hg isotopes,
for which we would expect a qualitatively different asymmetry of the fragments.Comment: 8 pages, 9 figure
Dirac Sea Contribution in Relativistic Random Phase Approximation
In the hadrodynamics (QHD) there are two methods to take account of the
contribution of negative-energy states in the relativistic random phase
approximation (RRPA). Dawson and Furnstahl made the ansatz that the Dirac sea
were empty, while according to the Dirac hole theory the sea should be fully
occupied. The two methods seem contradictory. Their close relationship and
compatibility are explored and in particular the question of the ground-state
(GS) instability resulting from Dawson-Furnstanhl's ansatz is discussed.Comment: 17 pages, 4 figures (the revised version.The paper and figures are

Constraint Molecular Dynamics approach to Fermionic systems
We propose a Constraint Molecular Dynamics model for Fermionic system. In
this approach the equations of motion of wave packets for the nuclear many-body
problem are solved by imposing that the one-body occupation probability
can assume only values less or equal to 1. This condition
reflects the Fermionic nature of the studied systems and it is implemented with
a fast algorithm which allows also the study of the heaviest colliding system.
The parameters of the model have been chosen to reproduce the average binding
energy and radii of nuclei in the mass region . Some comparison
to data is given.Comment: 11 pages and 6 figure
