Nonaxial octupole deformations in light N=Z nuclei at high spins

Nuclear Theory 2009-11-06 v2

Abstract

High spin states of ^{32}S$ and ^{56}Ni are investigated by means of the cranking Hartree-Fock method with the Gogny interaction without imposing a restriction on the axial reflection symmetry. It was found that a non-axial octupole deformation of the Y_{31} type becomes important in the yrast states of ^{32}S. A similar effect is predicted for the nucleus ^{56}Ni.
