Ground state properties and shape evolution in Pt isotopes within the covariant density functional theory

In this work, the ground-state properties of the platinum isotopic chain, 160-238Pt, are studied within the covariant density functional theory. The calculations are carried out for a large number of even-even Pt isotopes by using the density-dependent point-coupling and the density dependent meson-exchange effective interactions. All ground-state properties such as the binding energy, separation energy, two-neutron shell gap, rms-radii for neutrons and protons and quadrupole deformation are discussed and compared with available experimental data, and with the predictions of some nuclear models such as the Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) model with NL3 functional and the Hartree Fock Bogoliubov (HFB) method with SLy4 Skyrme force. The shape phase transition for Pt isotopic chain is also studied. Its corresponding total energy curves as well as the potential energy surfaces confirm the transition from prolate to oblate shapes at 188Pt contrary to some studies predictions and in agreement with others. Overall, a good agreement is found between the calculated and experimental results wherever available.

Nuclear structure investigation of even-even Sn isotopes within the covariant density functional theory

The current investigation aims to study the ground-state properties of one of the most interesting isotopic chains in the periodic table, 94-168Sn, from the proton drip line to the neutron drip line by using the covariant density functional theory, which is a modern theoretical tool for the description of nuclear structure phenomena. The physical observables of interest include the binding energy, separation energy, two-neutron shell gap, rms-radii for protons and neutrons, pairing energy and quadrupole deformation. The calculations are performed for a wide range of neutron numbers, starting from the proton-rich side up to the neutron-rich one, by using the density-dependent meson-exchange and the density dependent point-coupling effective interactions. The obtained results are discussed and compared with available experimental data and with the already existing results of relativistic Mean Field (RMF) model with NL3 functional. The shape phase transition for Sn isotopic chain is also investigated. A reasonable agreement is found between our calculated results and the available experimental data.

Investigation of ground-state properties of even-even and odd Pb isotopes within Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory

The nuclear structure of even-even and odd lead isotopes (178-236 Pb) is investigated within the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory. Calculations are performed for a wide range of neutron numbers, starting from the proton-rich side up to the neutron-rich side, by using the SLy4 Skyrme interaction and a new proposed formula for the pairing strength which is more precise for this region of nuclei as we did in previous works in the regions of Neodymium (Nd, Z=60) [Int. J. Mod. Phys. E 24, 1550073 (2015)] and Molybdenum (Mo, Z=42) [Nuc. Phys. A 957 22-32 (2017)]. Such a new pairing strength formula allows reaching exotic nuclei region where the experimental data are not available. Calculated values of various physical quantities such as binding energy, two-neutron separation energy, and rms-radii for protons and neutrons are discussed and compared with experimental data and some estimates of other nuclear models like Finite Range Droplet Model (FRDM), Relativistic Mean Field (RMF), Density-Dependent Meson-Exchange Relativistic Energy Functional (DD-ME2) and results of Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations based on the D1S Gogny effective nucleon-nucleon interaction (Gogny D1S).

Ground state properties of even-even and odd Nd,Ce and Sm isotopes in Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov method

In this work, we have studied ground-state properties of both even-even and odd Nd isotopes within Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov method with SLy5 Skyrme force in which the pairing strength has been generalized with a new proposed formula. We calculated bind- ing energies, two-neutron separation energies, quadrupole deformation, charge, neutron and proton radii. Similar calculations have been carried out for Ce and Sm in order to verify the validity of our pairing strength formula. The results have been compared with available experimental data, the results of Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations based on the D1S Gogny effective nucleon-nucleon interaction and predictions of some nuclear models such as Finite Range Droplet Model (FRDM) and Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) theory.
