Examining possible neutron-halo nuclei heavier than Mg 37

Hamamoto-Kuroda, Ikuko LU (2017) In Physical Review C: covering nuclear physics 95(4).
Abstract

The even-Z odd-N neutron-halo nuclei, which are the lightest neutron-halo nuclei heavier than Mg37, are explored by studying the shell structure unique in weakly bound neutrons for spherical or deformed shapes. It is pointed out that due to the narrowed N=50 spherical energy gap and a few resulting close-lying neutron one-particle levels, 1g9/2, 3s1/2, and 2d5/2, for spherical shape, nuclei with some weakly bound neutrons filling in those levels may be deformed and have a good chance to show deformed s-wave halos. Promising candidates are Cr472471, Cr492473, Cr512475, and Fe512677 in the case that those nuclei lie inside the neutron drip line. An interesting possibility of the deformed p-wave or s-wave halos is suggested also for the... (More)

An interesting possibility of the deformed p-wave or s-wave halos is suggested also for the nucleus Ar351853.
