21 Conclusions After removing the Coulomb and Wigner terms, the symmetry energy coefficients of finite nuclei can be extracted from nuclear masses. The fourth-order term of symmetry energy coefficients might result in the big difference of model predictions. Through matching the Liquid-drop energy and the Skyrme energy density functional, we obtain the slope parameter L ~ 42 MeV (LSD) and 52 MeV (WS*). Many doubly-magic nuclei (N>Z) locate along the N=1.37Z+13.5, might due to the correlation between nucleons near Fermi surface, and more attentions should be paid to SHN with N=178.
