The ground state energies, sizes and deformations of 1897 even–even nuclei with 10≤Z ≤110 have been carried out by using the Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) model. In the present calculations, the nonlinear RMF force NL3* recent refitted version of the NL3 force has been used. The BCS (Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer) formalism with constant gap approximation has been taken into account for pairing correlations. The predictions of RMF model for the ground state properties of some nuclei have been discussed in detail.
The model of light nuclei built from alpha particles is considered from the point of view of quasimolecular structure. Some properties of nuclei like binding energy, rotational bands and even Bose-Einstein condensation have simple semiclassical explanation in the framework of this model.
