Abstract
The recently developed variational Wigner-Kirkwood approach is extende d to the relativistic mean field theory for finite nuclei. A numerical application to the calculation of the surface energy coefficient in s emiinfinite nuclear matter is presented. The new method is contrasted with the standard density functional theory and the fully quantal appr oach.
