Ground state deformations in the rare-earth nuclei

Axial and reflection asymmetry of the nuclear ground state

“…Somewhat later Götz and collaborators considered triaxial shape degrees of freedom in the nuclear ground state [23][24][25]. In the study [24] of nuclei just ''southwest" of 208 Pb, that is nuclei with Z < 82, N < 126, no triaxial minima are found.…”

Deformations and moments of inertia of actinide nuclei in the ground and shape isomeric states

“…Therefore, it seems useful to provide experimentalists with systematic tables of deformations and moments of inertia for the actinide region. Our calculations are an extension of those done by Gdtz et al 5), who restricted themselves to the ground states in the rare earth region.…”

Spins, moments and charge radii in the isotopic series181Hg-191Hg

“…No similar calculations existed for the light Hg isotopes. Following [56], F~issler et al [39] interpreted the observed jump in the Hg IS as shape transition from a small oblate deformation in 187Hg to a strong prolate one in lSSHg. Soon after, this result was confirmed by Dickmann and Dietrich [40].…”

“…We will not repeat the same discussion for ~ 8lHg and ~83Hg, but refer to Table3. Still, in the following chapter one should discriminate carefully between comparison of the direct observable 6 (r 2) or J~, the less direct 6 (f12) or the most indirect informations (f12), [55] and G6tz et al [56]. No similar calculations existed for the light Hg isotopes.…”
