The data on binding energies can be found in the file bedata.dat at the github address of the course
  • Include in the same figure(s) the liquid drop model results of Eq. (2.17) of Alex Brown's text, namely
$$ BE(N,Z)= \alpha_1A-\alpha_2A^{2/3}-\alpha_3\frac{Z^2}{A^{1/3}}-\alpha_4\frac{(N-Z)^2}{A}, $$ with \( \alpha_1=15.49 \) MeV, \( \alpha_2=17.23 \) MeV, \( \alpha_3=0.697 \) MeV and \( \alpha_4=22.6 \) MeV. Comment your results
