Pion condensation and stability of abnormal nuclei
Abstract
A possible existence of super-dense nuclei with various Z/ A ratios is discussed. The binding energy and the equilibrium density of super-dense and neutron nuclei are calculated in terms of simple models. It is shown that the accuracy of the present-day theory is not sufficient to make a definite conclusion whether such nuclei exist, but such a possibility exists at reasonable values of nuclear constants.
