The density dependence of the nuclear symmetry energy is inspected using the Statistical Multifragmentation Model with Skyrme effective interactions. The model consistently considers the expansion of the fragments volumes at finite temperature at the freeze-out stage. By selecting parameterizations of the Skyrme force that lead to very different equations of state for the symmetry energy, we investigate the sensitivity of different observables to the properties of the effective forces. Our results suggest that, in spite of being sensitive to the thermal dilation of the fragments volumes, it is difficult to distinguish among the Skyrme forces from the isoscaling analysis. On the other hand, the isotopic distribution of the emitted fragments turns out to be very sensitive to the force employed in the calculation.

The decomposition of nuclear symmetry energy into spin and isospin components is discussed to elucidate the underlying properties of the NN bare interaction. This investigation was carried out in the framework of the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock theory of
asymmetric nuclear matter with consistent two and three body forces. It is shown the interplay among the various two body channels in terms of isospin singlet and triplet components as well as spin singlet and triplet ones. The broad range of baryon densities enables to study the effects of three body force moving from low to high densities.
The explicit density (rho) dependence in the coupling coefficients of the non-relativistic nuclear energy-density functional (EDF) encodes effects of three-nucleon forces and dynamical correlations. The necessity for a coupling coefficient in the for
m of a small fractional power of rho is empirical and the power often chosen arbitrarily. Consequently, precision-oriented parameterisations risk overfitting and loss of predictive power. Observing that the Fermi momentum kF~rho^1/3 is a key variable in Fermi systems, we examine if a power hierarchy in kF can be inferred from the properties of homogeneous matter in a domain of densities which is relevant for nuclear structure and neutron stars. For later applications we want to determine an EDF that is of good quality but not overtrained. We fit polynomial and other functions of rho^1/3 to existing microscopic calculations of the energy of symmetric and pure neutron matter and analyze the fits. We select a form and parameter set which we found robust and examine the parameters naturalness and the resulting extrapolations. A statistical analysis confirms that low-order terms like rho^1/3 and rho^2/3 are the most relevant ones. It also hints at a different power hierarchy for symmetric vs. pure neutron matter, supporting the need for more than one rho^a terms in non-relativistic EDFs. The EDF we propose accommodates adopted properties of nuclear matter near saturation. Importantly, its extrapolation to dilute or asymmetric matter reproduces a range of existing microscopic results, to which it has not been fitted. It also predicts neutron-star properties consistent with observations. The coefficients display naturalness. Once determined for homogeneous matter, EDFs of the present form can be mapped onto Skyrme-type ones for use in nuclei. The statistical analysis can be extended to higher orders and for different ab initio calculations.
The spinodal instabilities in hot asymmetric nuclear matter and some important critical parameters derived thereof are studied using six different families of relativistic mean-field (RMF) models. The slopes of the symmetry energy coefficient vary ov
er a wide range within each family. The critical densities and proton fractions are more sensitive to the symmetry energy slope parameter at temperatures much below its critical value ($T_csim$14-16 MeV). The spread in the critical proton fraction at a given symmetry energy slope parameter is noticeably larger near $T_c$, indicating that the warm equation of state of asymmetric nuclear matter at sub-saturation densities is not sufficiently constrained. The distillation effects are sensitive to the density dependence of the symmetry energy at low temperatures which tend to wash out with increasing temperature.
In the present work we take the non relativistic limit of relativistic models and compare the obtained functionals with the usual Skyrme parametrization. Relativistic models with both constant couplings and with density dependent couplings are consid
ered. While some models present very good results already at the lowest order in the density, models with non-linear terms only reproduce the energy functional if higher order terms are taken into account in the expansion.
The KIDS framework for the nuclear equation of state (EoS) and energy density functional (EDF) offers the possibility to explore symmetry-energy (SE) parameters such as J (value at saturation density), L (slope), Ksym (curvature) and so on independen
tly of each other and of assumptions about the effective mass. Here we examine the performance of EoSs with different SE parameters in reproducing nuclear properties and astronomical observations in an effort to constrain especially L and Ksym or the droplet-model counterpart Ktau. Assuming a standard EoS for symmetric matter, we explore several points on the hyperplane of (J,L,Ksym or Ktau) values. For each point, the corresponding EDF parameters and a pairing parameter are obtained for applications in spherical even-even nuclei. This is the first application of KIDS EDFs with pairing correlations. The EoSs are tested successively on properties of closed-shell nuclei, along the Sn isotopic chain, and on astronomical observations, in a step-by-step process of elimination and correction. A small regime of best-performing parameters is determined. The results strongly suggest that Ksym is negative and no lower than -200MeV, that Ktau lies between roughly -400 and -300MeV and that L lies between 40 and 65MeV with L<55MeV more likely. Correlations between symmetry-energy parameters are critically discussed. Predictions for the position of the neutron drip line and the neutron skin thickness of selected nuclei are reported. They are only weakly affected by the choice of effective mass values. Parts of the drip line can be sensitive to the SE parameters. The results underscore the role of Ktau and of precise astronomical input. Better constraints are possible with precise fits to nuclear energies and, in the future, more-precise input from astronomy.
