Symmetry energy and the isospin dependent equation of state


Abstract in English

The isoscaling parameter $alpha$, from the fragments produced in the multifragmentation of $^{58}$Ni + $^{58}$Ni, $^{58}$Fe + $^{58}$Ni and $^{58}$Fe + $^{58}$Fe reactions at 30, 40 and 47 MeV/nucleon, was compared with that predicted by the antisymmetrized molecular dynamic (AMD) calculation based on two different nucleon-nucleon effective forces, namely the Gogny and Gogny-AS interaction. The results show that the data agrees better with the choice of Gogny-AS effective interaction, resulting in a symmetry energy of $sim$ 18-20 MeV. The observed value indicate that the fragments are formed at a reduced density of $sim$ 0.08 fm$^{-3}$.
