Abstract:
      In this paper, we consider the following Schr\"odinger-Poisson system with a cubic term \begin{equation}\label{000}\left\{\begin{aligned} &-\Delta u+V(|x|)u+ \lambda\phi u=|u|^2u\quad\mbox{in }\mathbb{R}^3,\&-\Delta \phi=u^{2}\quad\mbox{in }\mathbb{R}^3, \end{aligned}\right.\end{equation} where $\lambda>0$ and the radial function $V(x)$ is an external potential. By taking advantage of the Gersgorin disc theorem and Miranda theorem, via the variational method and blow up analysis, we prove that for each positive integer $k$, problem \eqref{000} admits a radial nodal solution $U_{k,4}^\lambda$ that changes sign exactly $k$ times. Furthermore, the energy of $U_{k,4}^{\lambda}$ is strictly increasing in $k$ and the asymptotic behavior of $U_{k,4^{\lambda}$ as $\lambda\to 0_+$ is established. These results extend the existing ones from the super-cubic case in \cite{Kim-Seok} to the cubic case.
