Abstract

The equation of state of nuclear matter has been studied byusing finite-range phenomenological effective interactionshaving Gaussian and Yukawa functional form. The single-particlemomentum distribution function has been evaluatedself-consistently to obtain the single-particle energy, energydensity and chemical potential at a thermal equilibrium. Byusing this self-consistent procedure the free-energy density,pressure, entropy density, effective mass and incompressibilityof nuclear matter have also been calculated. The possibletemperature, momentum and density dependence of thesequantities, particularly the mean field, effective mass andincompressibility, have been discussed. The phase transition toquark-gluon plasma has been studied for a zeroth-order bagmodel expression of quark pressure. The influence of thefunctional form of the effective interaction on these studieshas also been discussed.
