What is the Liquid-Drop Model Analogy?

A model of the atomic nucleus that has been successful in accounting for nuclear fission and the variation of nuclear stability with mass number. The density of a nucleus is independent of its size, which suggests that nuclear matter can be modelled on a drop of an incompressible liquid, such as water. Different excitation states of a drop-like nucleus can then be described in terms of spherical harmonics. The success of the model has been associated with the fact that the binding forces in both the nucleus and the liquid drop are essentially short-ranged. The liquid-drop model provides a subtle explanation for the variation of binding energy in different nuclei.
