Abstract: (Oxford Journals)
The incompressibility and the skewness coefficient of nuclear matter are studied by using the mean field theory with the excluded volume effects of the nucleons. The Coulomb coefficient K_c and the volume-symmetry coefficient of nuclear incompressibility are also calculated, with the aid of the scaling model. It is found that the excluded volume effects make it possible to fit the empirical data of the Coulomb coefficient K_c of nuclear incompressibility, even if the volume coefficient K is small (∼150 MeV). However, the symmetry properties favor K = 300 ±50 MeV as in the case of the mean field theory for point-like nucleons.
