Relativistic dynamics of a scalar boson confined by Woods–Saxon potential in a nucleus

Özet

We undertook a theoretical study of a scalar boson confined by Woods–Saxon potential in a nucleusvia the Duffin–Kemmer–Petiau equation. We analytically obtained the eigenvectors and energy levels through thehypergeometric functions. Single-particle energy levels of a boson in the 208Pb nucleus were calculated numerically.
