Abstract

We study static non-axial octupole deformations in proton-rich Z=NZ=N nuclei, 64^{64}Ge, 68^{68}Se, 72^{72}Kr, 76^{76}Sr, 80^{80}Zr and 84^{84}Mo, by using the Skyrme Hartree-Fock plus BCS calculation with no restrictions on the nuclear shape. The calculation predicts that the oblate ground state in 68^{68}Se is extremely soft for the Y33Y_{33} triangular deformation, and that in 80^{80}Zr the low-lying local minimum state coexisting with the prolate ground state has the Y32Y_{32} tetrahedral deformation.
