Abstract The pairing gap in semi-infinite nuclear matter has been calculated microscopically by solving the gap equation for a nonlocal interaction with the aid of the method proposed by V.A. Khodel, A.V. Khodel, and J.W. Clark [Nucl. Phys. A 598, 390 (1996)] for the case of infinite nuclear matter. The calculation employs the effective pairing interaction obtained previously for semi-infinite geometry on the basis of the separable 3×3 representation of the Paris nucleon-nucleon potential. The gap found in this way changes sharply in the surface region, where it has a pronounced maximum. The dependence of the surface effect on the chemical potential of nuclear matter has been investigated.
