Density-dependent symmetry energy at subsaturation densities from nuclear mass differences

We extract the mass-dependent symmetry energy coefficients $a_{\text{sym}}({A})$ with the nuclear mass differences reducing the uncertainties as far as possible. The estimated $a_{\text{sym}}({A})$ of $^{208}\text{Pb}$ is $22.4\pm 0.3$ MeV, which is further used to analyze the density-dependent nuclear matter symmetry energy at subsaturation densities. The slope parameter of the symmetry energy at the saturation density $ρ_{0}$ is $L=50.0\pm15.5$ MeV. Furthermore, it is found that, at the density of $ρ=0.69ρ_{0}=0.11$fm$^{-3}$, the symmetry energy $S(ρ=0.11\text{fm}^{-3})=25.98\pm0.01$ MeV and the correspondingly slope parameter is $L=49.6\pm6.2$ MeV, which are consistent with other independent analysis.
