Deformation properties of the BCP energy density functional

Abstract

We explore the deformation properties of the newly postulated BCP energy density functional (EDF). The results obtained for three isotope chains of Mg, Dy and Ra are compared to the available experimental data as well as to the results of the Gogny-D1S force. Results for the fission barrier of ${}^{240}$Pu are also discussed.
