Triaxial shape of the one-proton emitter $^{149}$Lu

We revisit the proton emitter $^{149}$Lu utilizing the recently developed triaxial relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov theory in continuum (TRHBc). By incorporating the microscopic nuclear structure properties from the TRHBc theory into the WKB approximation, we successfully reproduce the measured proton-emission half-life of $^{149}$Lu within experimental uncertainties. A triaxial ground state characterized by ($\beta=0.17,\gamma=31^\circ$) has been clarified for $^{149}$Lu. The inclusion of triaxiality significantly changes nuclear density distributions and potentials, which results in enhanced binding of both the nuclear system and the proton-emitting orbital. As a result, a slightly extended half-life for the proton emission of $^{149}$Lu is achieved after considering triaxial deformation degrees of freedom.
