The similarities and differences with the nuclear matter case are emphasized and described by few illustrative examples. The comparison of calculations of different groups on the same set of nuclei show, besides agreements, also discrepancies that remain to be clarified. The role of the many-body correlations, like screening, that go beyond the BCS scheme, is still uncertain and requires further investigation.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-01-27T21:38:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "26.60.+c", "21.65.+f", "21.60.-n", "97.60.Jd" ], "keywords": [ "microscopic evaluation", "pairing gap", "nuclear matter case", "bcs scheme", "satisfactory description" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Journal of Physics G Nuclear Physics", "year": 2010, "month": "Jun", "volume": 37, "number": 6, "pages": "064016" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 21, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 841849, "adsabs": "2010JPhG...37f4016B" } } }
