An extended thomas-fermi model with clustering in nuclei

In this study, a phenomenological theory of nuclei that includes clustering at the nuclear surface in a general form is presented. The theory elaborates the recently extracted large symmetry energy by Natowitz et al., at low densities of nuclear matter and is fully consistent with the static propert...
