Abstract
We generalize to N2LO Skyrme functionals the semi-classical approach of Grammaticos and Voros in order to calculate the Extended Thomas Fermi expressions of the new densities and currents appearing at the N2LO level. Within a one dimensional symmetric semi infinite nuclear matter model and using a simple Fermi-like density profile, we obtain an easy-to-use formula for the surface energy including the contributions of the central, density-dependent and spin-orbit terms up to $\hbar^2$. Such a formula can be easily used as a first attempt to constrain the surface properties of new N2LO Skyrme parametrizations. The N2LO parametrization tested in this paper is shown to exhibit a shift (compared to a full Hartree-Fock calculation) which is quantitatively similar to the one obtained with the traditional Skyrme parametrizations.
