We have recently presented a new non-relativistic nuclear energy density functionalwhich is constructed, not as usual, from an effective density dependent nucleon-nucleon force but directly introducing in the functional results from microscopicnuclear and neutron matter Bruckner G-matrix calculations at various densities.We add a purely phenomenological finite range part to account for surface proper-ties. We take from the literature a density dependent zero range force to describethe pairing correlations. We find that only four to five adjustable parameters, spin-orbit included, suffice to reproduce nuclear binding energies and radii to the sameaccuracy as those obtained with some of the best effective forces for both spheri-cal and deformed nuclei. The deformation properties of this new functional are inexcellent agreement with the results computed using the Gogny D1S force.
