Nuclear Matter Properties of the Modified Quark Meson Coupling Model
1997
We explore in more detail the modified quark meson coupling (MQMC) model in nuclear matter. Based on previous studies two different functional forms for the density dependence of the bag constant are discussed. For uniform matter distributions the MQMC model can be cast in a form identical to QHD by a redefinition of the sigma meson field. It is then clear that modifications similar to those introduced in QHD will permit the reproduction of all nuclear matter properties including the compressibility. After calibrating the model parameters at equilibrium nuclear matter density, the model and parameter dependence of the resulting equation of state is examined. Nucleon properties and scaling relations between the bag constant and the effective nucleon mass are discussed.
