Abstract
We have performed tilted-axis-cranked Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations for a neutron-rich hafnium isotope (Hf) whose proton and neutron numbers are both in the upper shell region. We study whether the shell effects play a role in producing high- isomers or highly gamma-deformed states at high spin. In particular, the possibility of shape coexistence and the effect of wobbling motion are discussed.
