Multi-dimensional constraint relativistic mean field model and applications in actinide and transfermium nuclei

Abstract

In this contribution we present some results of potential energy surfaces of actinide and transfermium nuclei from multi-dimensional constrained relativistic mean field (MDC-RMF) models. Recently we developed multi-dimensional constrained covariant density functional theories (MDC-CDFT) in which all shape degrees of freedom ${\beta }_{\lambda \mu }$ with even $\mu$ are allowed and the functional can be one of the following four forms: the meson exchange or point-coupling nucleon interactions combined with the non-linear or density-dependent couplings. In MDC-RMF models, the pairing correlations are treated with the BCS method. With MDC-RMF models, the potential energy surfaces of even-even actinide nuclei were investigated and the effect of triaxiality on the fission barriers in these nuclei was discussed. The non-axial reflection-asymmetric ${\beta }_{32}$ shape in some transfermium nuclei with $N=150$, namely ${}^{246}$Cm, ${}^{248}$Cf, ${}^{250}$Fm, and ${}^{252}$No were also studied.
