Abstract

A density-dependent M3Y effective nucleon–nucleon (NN) interaction is used to determine the incompressibility of infinite nuclear matter. The equilibrium density of the nuclear matter is determined by minimizing the energy per nucleon. The density dependence parameters are chosen to reproduce the saturation energy per nucleon and the saturation density of spin and isospin symmetric cold infinite nuclear matter. The result of such calculations for nuclear incompressibility using the density-dependent M3Y effective interaction predicts a value of about 300 MeV for nuclear incompressibility.
