Detailed Description

This class is experimental.

The default set of nuclear masses is from the AME 2012 mass evaluation and is automatically loaded in the constructor.

Idea for Future:: If this isn't going to be in a child of nucmass, then maybe we can simplify binding_energy_densmat_derivs() to just binding_energy().

This function computes the binding energy of a nucleus in a sea of protons, neutrons, and negative charges (usually electrons) at a fixed temperature, relative to homogeneous nucleonic matter with the same number densities of protons, neutrons, and negative charges. The proton number Z and neutron number N should also be counted relative to homogeneous nucleonic matter, not relative to the vacuum.

As in o2scl::nucmass::binding_energy_d(), the binding energy returned in E has units of MeV. All densities are expected to be in $\mathrm{fm}^{-3}$ , and the temperature should be in MeV.

Idea for Future:: Extend to negative N and Z?
