Pastore, Alessandro orcid.org/0000-0003-3354-6432 (2020) Bootstrap analysis of the correlations between neutron skin thickness and the slope of symmetry energy. International journal of modern physics e-Nuclear physics. ISSN 0218-3013
Abstract
This work illustrates the use of bootstrap methods to quantify the statistical uncertainties on the correlation coefficients between the slope of the symmetry energy and the neutron skin thickness in heavy nuclei. By using several energy density functionals, I discuss the density dependence of such a correlation and its evolution with isospin asymmetry. In particular, I observe that the correlation between the slope of the symmetry energy and the neutron skin is present not only at saturation density, but over a much larger density range.
