Density and momentum dependence of the coupling strengths for scalar and vector fields

Abstract

The collision term has been deduced based on the effective Lagrangian in addition to the mean-field. We propose the momentum- and density-dependent coupling strengths for scalar and vector fields. The saturation properties of nuclear matter, the experimental data of the energy-dependent optical potential and the mean free path in the nuclei can be reproduced simultaneously. The in-mediumn−n cross section has also been calculated for different densities and energies, our results are consistent with Dirac-Brueckner-Hartree-Fock calculations.
