%0 Journal Article %T Preliminary Studies of Thermal Wavelength Approximation in 208Pb and 91Zr hot Nuclei %A R. Kurniadi %J ITB Journal of Engineering Science %D 2006 %I Institut Teknologi Bandung %X Level density parameters of 208Pb and 91Zr in equilibrium states have been calculated with a new fugacity approximation namely a thermal wavelength approximation. In this approximation, the fugacity is directly proportional to the nucleon density. In contrast with the constant fugacity, the thermal wavelength approximation gives a simpler way to calculate the nuclei constant radius and the density profile. The calculated 208Pb nuclear density is about 0.17 (fm-3) in which the discrepancy is 0.1% higher than the experimental one. The level density parameters are 14% higher than the experimental results due to neglecting of the shell correction. %K Thermal wave length %K fugacity %K level density parameters %K hot nuclei %U http://journal.itb.ac.id/download.php?file=B06005.pdf&id=152&up=8
