Statistical Errors in Weizsäcker-Skyrme Mass Model

  • The statistical uncertainties of 15 model parameters in the Weizsäcker-Skyrme(WS4) mass model are investigated with an efficient approach, and the propagated errors in the predicted masses are estimated. The discrepancies between the predicted masses and the experimental data are almost all smaller than the model errors. The most sensitive model parameter which causes the largest statistical error is analyzed for all bound nuclei. We find that the two coefficients of symmetry energy term significantly influence the mass predictions of extremely neutron-rich nuclei. In addition, the parameter uncertainties and statistical errors of the WS4 mass model and the WS* mass model are compared. The uncertainties of model parameter in the WS4 mass model is reduced by 10% ~ 50% compared with the WS* mass model.
