Abstract

A method to study spin-fields and the spin-orbit potential within the local energy density approach is presented. The concept utilizes the intrinsic simplicity of terminating states in order to constrain certain parameters of the local nuclear energy functional. In particular, constraints on the isoscalar Landau parameter g₀ and the strength of the spin-orbit potential are thoroughly discussed.
