Comparison of the microscopic symmetry potential with the phenomenological ones Our microscopic symmetry potential shows a strongly different density and momentum dependence from the phenomenological ones adopted in the dynamical simulations of HIC. It is necessary to apply the microscopic symmetry potential in the calculations of HIC.
definition of m* effective mass describes the non locality of the s.p. energy, which makes the local part less attractive. Starting from the energy-moment conservation The effective mass is defined as: effective mass is density and momentum dependent: p ≤ pF m* > 1 (pairing?) p > pF m* < 1

S.P. Potential:Ground state correlation and TBF rearrangement effect
TBF rearrangment contributions to the s.p. potentials TBF effects on s.p. properties : 1. TBF affects the s.p. properties via G-matrix 2. TBF rearrangement modifications of the s.p. properties 1. The TBF induces a strongly repulsive and momentum-dependent rearrangement modification of the neutron and proton s. p. potentials at high densities and momenta. 2. The TBF rearrangement contribution is much larger than that via G-matrix above the Feimi momentum. 3. The TBF rearrangement strongly reduces the attraction and enhances the momentum-dependence of the s.p. potential at high densities and momenta. S.p. potentials in SNM in three cases: without the TBF; including the TBF effect only via G-matrix; including the full contribution of the TBF
TBF rearrangment effect on symmetry potential 1. Negligible at low densities around and below the Fermi momentum. 2. Enhancement of the repulsion for neutrons and the attraction for protons. 3. Modification of the high-momentum behavior at high

Summary • The TBF provides a repulsive contribution to the EOS and improves remarkably the predicted saturation properties. • The TBF from the Z-diagram provides the saturation mechanism and gives the main relativistic effect in DBHF approach. • The empirical parabolic law for the EOS of ANM can be extended to the highest asymmetry and to the finite-temperature case. • The TBF leads to a strong enhancement of symmetry energy and the proton fraction in β-stable matter at high density. • The neutron-proton effective mass splitting is • The neutron-proton effective mass splitting is determined by the splitting of the k-mass and essentially controlled by the nature of the NN interaction. • The TBF induces a strongly repulsive and momentum-dependent rearrangement contribution to the s.p. potential at high densities. m*n > m*p
