Abstract

Within the framework of relativistic Thomas–Fermi (RTF) and relativistic extended Thomas–Fermi (RETF) approximations, we calculate the giant monopole resonance (GMR) excitation energies for Sn and related nuclei. A large number of nonlinear relativistic force parameters are used in these calculations. We find a parameter set is capable to reproduce the experimental monopole energy of Sn isotopes, when its nuclear matter compressibility lies within 210–230 MeV, however, it fails to reproduce the GMR energy of other nuclei. That means, simultaneously a parameter set cannot reproduce the GMR values of Sn and other nuclei.
