Background: The presence of nuclear ground states with stable reflection-asymmetric shapes is supported by rich experimental evidence. Theoretical surveys of odd-multipolarity deformations predict the existence of pear-shaped isotopes in…
We have performed a systematic study of the ground state for even-even 1,002 nuclei in which 28 octupole-deformed nuclei are found. The interplay between the spatial deformation and the pairing correlation, plays important roles in nuclear…
A systematic investigation of octupole deformed nuclei is presented for even-even systems with $Z\leq 106$ located between the two-proton and two-neutron drip lines. For this study we use five most up-to-date covariant energy density…
A systematic search for axial octupole deformation in the actinides and superheavy nuclei with proton numbers $Z=88-126$ and neutron numbers from two-proton drip line up to $N=210$ has been performed in covariant density functional theory…
In this first-of-its-kind survey conducted on heavy and deformed nuclei in the actinide region of the nuclear chart, we have charted nuclear ground state properties predicted by Fayans energy density functionals (EDFs), focusing in…
Within the nuclear density functional theory (DFT) we study the effect of reflection-asymmetric shapes on ground-state binding energies and binding energy differences. To this end, we developed the new DFT solver AxialHFB that uses an…
Quadrupole and octupole deformation energy surfaces, low-energy excitation spectra, and electric transition rates in eight neutron-rich isotopic chains -- Ra, Th, U, Pu, Cm, Cf, Fm, and No -- are systematically analyzed using a…
Background: Properties of giant dipole resonances, along with other nuclear resonances, provide valuable tools for refining theoretical models as they reflect collective features of nuclear matter. Among such collective phenomena is…
Shape and multiple shape coexistence of nuclei are investigated throughout the nuclear chart by calculating the low-lying spectra and the quadrupole shape invariants for even-even nuclei with $10\leq Z\leq 104$ from the proton drip line to…
Atomic nuclei in general can have deformed shapes and nearly all these shapes are symmetric with respect to reflection. Only a few Actinide nuclei have stable reflection asymmetric pear shapes in their ground state and exhibit…
Reflection asymmetric, octupole shapes in nuclei are a prominent aspect of nuclear structure, and have been recurrently studied over the decades. Recent experiments using radioactive-ion beams have provided evidence for stable octupole…
The potential-energy surfaces of an extended set of heavy and super-heavy even-even nuclei with $92 \le Z \le 126$ and isospins $40 \le N-Z \le 74$ are evaluated within the recently developed Fourier shape parametrization. Ground-state and…
We investigate the stability and softness of nuclei against quadrupole, octupole, and hexadecapole deformation. By applying the spherical Skyrme-force Hartree-Fock Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer quasi-particle random phase approximation, we…
Recent high-energy heavy ion collision experiments have revealed that some atomic nuclei exhibit unusual softness and significant shape fluctuations. In this work, we use the fully self-consistent mean-field theory to identify all even-even…
The ground-state properties and shape evolution of even-even hafnium isotopes ranging from $N=80$ to the neutron dripline are thoroughly examined using Covariant Density Functional Theory (CDFT) with density-dependent effective…
We develop both relativistic mean field and beyond approaches for hypernuclei with possible quadrupole-octupole deformation or pear-like shapes based on relativistic point-coupling energy density functionals. The symmetries broken in the…
Covariant density functional theory (CDFT) is a modern theoretical tool for the description of nuclear structure phenomena. The current investigation aims at the global assessment of the accuracy of the description of the ground state…
The onset of octupole deformation and its impact on related spectroscopic properties is studied in even-even neutron-rich lanthanide isotopes Xe, Ba, Ce, and Nd with neutron number $86\leqslant N\leqslant 94$. Microscopic input comes from…
Octupole deformed shapes in neutron-rich actinides and superheavy nuclei as well as extremely deformed shapes of the N~Z light nuclei have been investigated within the framework of covariant density functional theory. We confirmed the…
This study investigates the structural evolution of even-even tungsten isotopes ($^{154\text{--}264}$W) using covariant density functional theory (CDFT) with four relativistic functionals: DD-ME1, DD-ME2, DD-PC1, and DD-PCX. Key nuclear…
