Existence of intrinsic reflection asymmetry at low spin in odd and odd-odd mass nuclei in the Pm/Eu region

Afanasjev, A. V. and Ragnarsson, I. LU (1995) In Physical Review C 51(3). p.1259-1264
Abstract

The low-spin features of odd-mass nuclei in the Z∼62, N∼90 region, for which stable octupole deformations has been previously suggested, are studied without introducing the static intrinsic reflection asymmetry (SIRA). Calculations using a Woods-Saxon potential and taking into account the Coriolis mixing show that most properties can be described in this approximation. Furthermore, the calculated polarization energies of octupole-driving orbitals are not large enough to support the existence of SIRA at low spin in this region.
