Nuclear Statistical Equilibrium

L&S EOS is obtained in the single nucleus approximation (SNA). Properties in the SNA can difger signifjcantly from observed properties of nuclei. No shell closure; No pairing; liquid drop model neglects many-body efgects; … Conversely, NSE breaks down close to nuclear saturation density n0 ≃ 0.16fm−3; Needs very large and very neutron rich nuclei at low y and/or high n ∼ n0; No nuclear inversion (pasta phase).
