Oblate deformation of light neutron-rich even-even nuclei

Hamamoto-Kuroda, Ikuko LU (2014) In Physical Review C (Nuclear Physics) 89(5).
Abstract
Light neutron-rich even-even nuclei, of which the ground state is oblately deformed, are looked for, examining the Nilsson diagram based on realisticWoods-Saxon potentials. One-particle energies of the Nilsson diagram are calculated by solving the coupled differential equations obtained from the Schrodinger equation in coordinate space with the proper asymptotic behavior for r -> infinity for both one-particle bound and resonant levels. The eigenphase formalism is used in the calculation of one-particle resonant energies. Large energy gaps on the oblate side of the Nilsson diagrams are found to be related to the magic numbers for the oblate deformation of the harmonic-oscillator potential where the frequency ratios (omega(perpendicular...

Light neutron-rich even-even nuclei, of which the ground state is oblately deformed, are looked for, examining the Nilsson diagram based on realisticWoods-Saxon potentials. One-particle energies of the Nilsson diagram are calculated by solving the coupled differential equations obtained from the Schrodinger equation in coordinate space with the proper asymptotic behavior for r -> infinity for both one-particle bound and resonant levels. The eigenphase formalism is used in the calculation of one-particle resonant energies. Large energy gaps on the oblate side of the Nilsson diagrams are found to be related to the magic numbers for the oblate deformation of the harmonic-oscillator potential where the frequency ratios (omega(perpendicular to) : omega(z)) are simple rational numbers. In contrast, for the prolate deformation the magic numbers obtained from simple rational ratios of (omega(perpendicular to) : omega(z)) of the harmonic-oscillator potential are hardly related to the particle numbers, at which large energy gaps appear in the Nilsson diagrams based on realisticWoods-Saxon potentials. The argument for an oblate shape of Si-42(14)28 is given. Among light nuclei the nucleus C-20(6)14 is found to be a good candidate for having the oblate ground state. In the region of the mass number A approximate to 70 the oblate ground state may be found in the nuclei around Ni-76(28)48 in addition to Ni-64(28)36. (Less)
