ABSTRACT

The study show that the error in neglecting s-dependence affects strongly both the values of U ex and Utot . This effect is about 30 %( 23%) in U ex (Utot) for the force BDM3Y2-Reid type while it is less than 7% for BDM3Y1-Ried. It decreases as a– a separation distance increases. For BDM3Y3 type force the corresponding error is too large at separation distance R=0.

Keywords : a-a interaction potential, local density dependence.
