Pairing: from atomic nuclei to neutron-star crusts    [PDF]

N. Chamel, J. M. Pearson, S. Goriely

Nuclear pairing is studied both in atomic nuclei and in neutron-star crusts in the unified framework of the energy-density functional theory using generalized Skyrme functionals complemented with a local pairing functional obtained from many-body calculations in homogeneous nuclear matter using realistic forces.
