The relativistic Thomas-Fermi equation for extended nuclear matter

ORAL

Abstract

The derivation of the dimensionless form of the relativistic Thomas-Fermi equation for extended nuclear matter are described, taking into due account the process of inverse beta decay. The equations of the binding energy of such a configuration are also derived. The analogy and the differences between this treatment and the classical one by Greiner, Migdal, Popov and their schools are presented.
