Abstract
We present the first auxiliary field Monte Carlo calculations for a ra re earth nucleus, 170Dy. A pairing plus quadrupole Hamiltonian is used to demonstrate the physical properties that can be studied in this re gion. We calculate various static observables for both uncranked and c ranked systems and show how the shape distribution evolves with temper ature. We also introduce a discretization of the path integral that al lows a more efficient Monte Carlo sampling.
