摘要:

利用CREX和PREX-2合作组近期对$^{48}$Ca和$^{208}$Pb中电荷-弱形状因子差$ΔF_{\rm CW}$的模型无关测定结果,结合双幻核的一些已确定性质,我们在Skyrme能量密度泛函(EDF)框架下,对$^{48}$Ca和$^{208}$Pb的对称能$E_{\rm sym}(ρ)$及中子皮厚度$Δr_{\rm np}$开展了贝叶斯推断。我们发现,分别从CREX和PREX-2推断出的$E_{\rm sym}(ρ)$与$Δr_{\rm np}$在90%置信水平下相互兼容,但在68.3%置信水平下存在不一致:CREX(PREX-2)倾向于极软(硬)的$E_{\rm sym}(ρ)$和相当小(大)的$Δr_{\rm np}$。通过结合CREX和PREX-2的数据,我们得到了饱和密度$ρ_0$附近的软对称能,以及$^{48}$Ca和$^{208}$Pb更薄的$Δr_{\rm np}$,这些结果更接近仅用CREX得到的对应结果,表明由于PREX-2的$ΔF_{\rm CW}$精度更低,其对$E_{\rm sym}(ρ)$和$Δr_{\rm np}$的约束效力更弱。此外,我们发现结合CREX和PREX-2数据推断出的Skyrme EDF结果,与$^{48}$Ca和$^{208}$Pb中测得的偶极极化率$α_D$,以及微观计算得到的中子物质状态方程均吻合良好。本文还讨论了$ρ_0$附近推断出的软$E_{\rm sym}(ρ)$的相关意义。

英文摘要:

Using the recent model-independent determination of the charge-weak form factor difference $ΔF_{\rm CW}$ in $^{48}$Ca and $^{208}$Pb by the CREX and PREX-2 collaborations together with some well-determined properties of doubly magic nuclei, we perform Bayesian inference of the symmetry energy $E_{\rm sym}(ρ)$ and the neutron skin thickness $Δr_{\rm np}$ of $^{48}$Ca and $^{208}$Pb within the Skyrme energy density functional (EDF). We find the inferred $E_{\rm sym}(ρ)$ and $Δr_{\rm np}$ separately from CREX and PREX-2 are compatible with each other at $90\%$ C.L., although they are inconsistent at $68.3\%$ C.L. with CREX (PREX-2) favoring a very soft (stiff) $E_{\rm sym}(ρ)$ and rather small (large) $Δr_{\rm np}$. By combining the CREX and PREX-2 data, we obtain a soft symmetry energy around saturation density $ρ_0$ and thinner $Δr_{\rm np}$ of $^{48}$Ca and $^{208}$Pb, which are found to be closer to the corresponding results from CREX alone, implying the PREX-2 is less effective to constrain the $E_{\rm sym}(ρ)$ and $Δr_{\rm np}$ due to its lower precision of $ΔF_{\rm CW}$. Furthermore, we find the Skyrme EDF results inferred by combining the CREX and PREX-2 data nicely agree with the measured dipole polarizabilities $α_D$ in $^{48}$Ca and $^{208}$Pb as well as the neutron matter equation of state from microscopic calculations. The implications of the inferred soft $E_{\rm sym}(ρ)$ around $ρ_0$ are discussed.
