Deformed neutron halo nuclei and soft dipole excitations in the 40<A<90 mass region

Xiao Lu, Cong Pan, Hiroyuki Sagawa +2

We study deformed neutron halo nuclei in the mass region and their soft electric dipole () excitations based on the deformed relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov theor…

A Halo: The Trigger to a New Era of Nuclear Correlations

Hiroyuki Sagawa, Xiao Lu, Shan-Gui Zhou

In this contribution to the Halo-40 Proceedings, we discuss two topics regarding halo phenomena: The first is the pairing anti-halo effect on the neutron radius of halo nuclei and…

Octupole correlations in Rn

Yi-Ming Jiang, Xiao Lu, Shan-Gui Zhou

The octupole correlations in Rn are investigated by using multi-dimensionally constrained covariant density functional theory. The ground-state properties and p…

Octupole correlations in superdeformed bands of Ni

Xiao Lu, Shivani Jain, Hiroyuki Sagawa +1

The projected multi-dimensionally-constrained relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov model was employed to calculate the potential energy surface of the high-spin states in $^{56}\text{Ni…

Dipole response of deformed halo nuclei Ne and Mg

Xiao Lu, Hiroyuki Sagawa, Shan-Gui Zhou

We study the soft electric dipole () response of deformed halo nuclei Ne and Mg using a deformed Woods-Saxon potential, with the potential depth adjusted to repro…
