J. Terasaki et al., DEFORMATION OF NUCLEI CLOSE TO THE 2-NEUTRON DRIP-LINE IN MG REGION, Acta physica Hungarica. Heavy ion physics, 6(1-4), 1997, pp. 201-204
We present Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) calculations of the ground st
ates of even Mg isotopes. A Skyrme force is used in the mean-field cha
nnel and a density-dependent zero-range force in the pairing channel.
Our study shows that the ground states of Mg-36,Mg-38,Mg-40 are strong
ly deformed with significantly different deformations for the neutrons
and protons. Our study supports the disappearance of the N = 28 shell
gap in the Mg isotopes.
