Abstract

Two new independent mass relations are derived and are shown to be consistent with several existing nuclear models. The most general functional dependence on proton number, neutron number, and mass number (or isospin value) of masses which satisfy these relations exactly is discussed, and a procedure for determining the values of these functions which give a best least-squares fit to the body of known masses is developed. The functions which give the best over-all fit are listed together with the resulting theoretical mass table which shows the discrepancies to known masses and the theoretical values for proton, neutron, and alpha-particle decay energies.
