Microscopic Investigation of Ground State Properties and Shape Evolution in Osmium Isotopes

Abstract

The present study focuses on investigating the shape evolution of neutron-rich even-even Osmium (Os) transitional nuclei within the range of neutron number N = 82 to N = 190. The investigation is conducted using density-dependent meson-nucleon and point-coupling models within the framework of the covariant density functional theory (CDFT). Additionally, the results obtained from the CDFT calculations are compared with those obtained using the relativistic mean-field model with a non-linear meson-nucleon interaction. The potential energy curve for Os isotopes (ranging from ${}^{158}$Os to ${}^{260}$Os) is analyzed in order to identify phase shape transitions, such as oblate-spherical-prolate. Furthermore, ground state bulk properties are calculated to gain insights into the structure of Os isotopes. The self-consistent calculations reveal a clear shape transition in the even-even Os isotopes, and overall, good agreement is observed among the different models employed as well as with the available experimental data.
