Abstract

Based on the nuclear equation of state, the curvature correction term to the surface tension coefficient is calculated. Tolman $\delta$ correction is shown to be sensitive to the Skyrme force parametrization. The temperature dependence of the Tolman length, important in heavy ion collisions experiments, is derived. In suggested approach the curvature term is related to the bulk properties of the nuclear matter through the equation of state. The obtained results are compared with the existing theoretical calculations based on the Gibbs-Tolman formalism and with the theoretical predictions concerning its dependence on the interparticle distance.
