Shell structure of weakly-bound and resonant neutrons
Abstract
The systematic change of shell structure in both weakly bound and resonant neutron one-particle levels in nuclei towards the neutron drip line is exhibited, solving the coupled equations derived from the Schr\"{o}dinger equation in coordinate space with the correct asymptotic behaviour of wave functions for . The change comes from the behaviour unique in the one-particle motion with low orbital angular momenta compared with that with high orbital angular momenta. The observed deformation of very neutron-rich nuclei with in the island of inversion is a natural result of this changed shell structure, while a possible deformation of neutron-drip-line nuclei with , which are not yet observed, is suggested.
