Study of the Ground-State Energies of Some Nuclei Using Hybrid Model by R. Hussien, Sh. M. Sewailem, L. I. Abou-Salem

“…In a semirelativistic framework, this model is encouraged for light nuclei and the instanton-induced interaction by using the QQ potential and the NN interaction for a small scale around the hadron boundaries. This hybrid model depends on two theories, the one-boson exchange potential (OBEP) and the Cornell-dressed potential (CDP) for QQ. …”
