3D Solution of Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov Equations for Drip-Line Nuclei

Abstract

We investigate the possibility of describing triaxial quadrupole deformations for nuclei close to the two-neutron drip line by the Hartree-Fock Bogoliubov method taking into account resonances in the continuum. We use a Skyrme interaction to describe the Hartee-Fock hamiltonian and a density-dependent zero-range interaction to evaluate the pairing field. The mean-field equations are solved in a three-dimensional cubic mesh. We study the stability of the two-neutron separation energies and of the description of the nuclear surface as a function of the number of active mean-field orbitals and of the size of the mesh. The even Ni isotopes are used as a test case and the accuracy as a function of quadrupole deformation is studied by performing constrained calculations. A first application to the study of the two-neutron separation energies in Ni isotopes up to the drip line is presented.
