Difference between theoretical equations and empirical equations
网页2016年4月24日 · We can look at the constants included within an equation to get an idea of whether it was theoretically derived, or an empirical result. If we have fundamental constants, such as $\hbar, \epsilon_0, e, c,$ etc, then it was probably theoretically derived. An empirical law would have an arbitrary constant which was measured by experiment.

The semi-empirical formula and - Physics Stack Exchange
网页2015年3月30日 · The semi-empirical mass formula (SEMF) is much more involved than this, and tries to take into account various other factors that will affect the mass/energy of the nucleus. For any nucleus, of course if you KNOW its mass beforehand then simply subtracting the individual masses of protons and neutrons will give you ($\pm$)the …
Semi-empirical mass formula - Physics Stack Exchange
网页2015年4月15日 · The formula is for the mass of the nucleus, so you would need to add on the mass of the electrons (and subtract their binding energy) to get the mass of the atom. However, as previous questions have mentioned, the mass of the electrons is a small correction and in fact generally smaller than the errors in the semi-empirical mass …
Asymmetry Term in the Semi-Empirical Mass Formula
网页2015年5月7日 · 1. Could someone explain to me in simple terms what the asymmetry term means and how it is derived. I don't really want a full fledged mathematical derivation, but more the basic principle and idea behind it. I have been looking at a derivation in a book, but it is proving quite difficult for me to understand. I know the concept is identical to ...
nuclear physics - What is the most stable nuclide of an isobar ...
网页The liquid drop model (LDP) is an approximate description of the mass of nuclei. It is a parametric formula that is fitted to the experimental values. The formula for binding energy is expressed in a similar way and comes from the same assumption. Therefore, both being parametrizations, they are approximate.
When does semi-empirical mass formula break down?
网页2017年5月16日 · 1/ I think one of the limits is the shell structure of the nucleus. One can get it only from solving Schrodinger equation. Not from piling-up the nucleons on one heap and evaluating different kinds of energies. 2/ the formula considers just the pronounced trends in the behavior of the nuclear matter. One can improve by further optimizing the ...
Pairing term in semi-empirical mass formula and nature of spin ...
网页2023年10月13日 · The semi-empirical mass formula's pairing term is attractive only for even-even nuclei, see for example, Miriam Hein et al. $2022$ Eur. J. Phys. $43$ $035801$. That is, it is pairing between protons or pairing between neutrons.
What is semi-empirical mass formula? Why semi? [closed]
网页2021年8月10日 · 3. Emperical formula is one which is based on experiment and not on theory. SEMF is based partly on theory and partly on empirical measurements so the name Semiemperical. Out of 5 energy terms first 3 terms i,e volume, surface and coulomb come from liquid drop model and the last 2 terms i,e asymmetry and pairing energy terms are …
Calculating energy released in nuclear fission
网页2017年5月19日 · One way would be to calculate the difference of the binding-energies (B B): ΔE = B(139, 57) + B(95, 42) − B(235, 92) ≈ 202, 3MeV Δ E = B (139, 57) + B (95, 42) − B (235, 92) ≈ 202, 3 M e V. (Btw. I didn't use the binding energies from a semi-empirical binding energy formula but calculated them directly via mass defect). Another way is:
