The intrinsic nuclear shapes deviating from a sphere not only manifest themselves in nuclear collective states but also play important roles in determining nuclear potential energy surfaces (PES's) and fission barriers. In order to describe…

Two (so-called left and right) variants of N-centered ensemble density-functional theory (DFT) [Senjean and Fromager, Phys. Rev. A 98, 022513 (2018)] are presented. Unlike the original formulation of the theory, these variants allow for the…
