Abstract

We obtain a more accurate rho-meson-nucleon coupling constant gρ for studying nuclei in relativistic mean field theory of nucleons and mesons than used before. With this gρ we get a better description of finite nuclei. We have studied a number of isotopic chains of neutron-rich nuclei using the new gρ parameter, with important consequences for very neutron-rich exotic nuclei and the neutron-drip line. The binding energies are sensitive to the coupling constant gρ, but the rms radii and deformation parameters of nuclei are not at all sensitive to gρ.
