Abstract

On the basis of a phenomenological theory proposed in an earlier paper the nuclear symmetry energy is recalculated. The value obtained is smaller than the one given before, which was incorrect. A relativistic calculation of the enengy with the radius parameter r/sub o/ = 1.07 x 1O/sup -13/ cm of the electron scattering experiments yields about the correct symmetry energy. Compensating uncertainties due to inaccuracy in r/sub o/, corrections due to the exclusion principle, and a possible difference in the radius of proton and neutron distributions make an accurate comparison with the empirical symmetry energy meaningless.
