Bulk Neutron Properties

Quantities extracted from simulations for each density of the inner crust \(\bar\rho\): \(\rho_{Bn}\) – bulk density of neutrons, \(\Delta_n\) – pairing energy of neutrons, \(k_{\mathrm{F}}\) – wave vector calculated for bulk density of neutrons, \(\epsilon_{\mathrm{F}}\) – Fermi energy, \(\epsilon_{\mathrm{F}}^*\) – Fermi energy calculated with respect to effective mass, \(N\) – number of neutrons, \(\xi\) – coherence length, \(R\) – radius of impurity, \(M_{\mathrm{eff}}\) – effective mass of impurity.

Effective Masses

Effective masses for dynamical, static, and hydro approaches for zirconium clusters in the inner crust. For the static case, one can think about \(M_{\mathrm{eff}}^s\) semi-classically as the number of protons plus bound neutrons. However, due to the neutron medium, this is not the proper picture.

Two nuclei in an elongated box. The Coulomb interaction is present, and the ultrarelativistic electrons are treated as a uniform gas. Schematic:

+-----------+

The nuclei are two zirconium atoms, so in total there are \(Z=80\) protons. The units of energy \(E_{\mathrm{tot}}\), pairing \(\Delta\), and chemical potential \(\mu\) are in MeV. The densities are measured in fm ^-3.
