Abstract

A novel method for the determination of the yet not well-known quantity of nuclear incompressibility, K is presented. Non-monotonic (NM) nucleus-nucleus potentials from the energy-density functional (EDF) theory including the Pauli principle have been considered for K in the range 188-266 MeV. The experimental cross sections of 16O+16O elastic scattering over the 31-350 MeV incident energies have been analyzed in the optical model using the NM potentials. Sensitivity of K on the elastic scattering data is studied and its value for infinite cold nuclear matter deduced to be 222 ± 5 MeV
