Microscopic analysis of octupole shape transitions in neutron-rich actinides with relativistic energy density functional
Quadrupole and octupole deformation energy surfaces, low-energy excitation spectra, and electric transition rates in eight neutron-rich isotopic chains − Ra, Th, U, Pu, Cm, Cf, Fm, and No − are systematically analyzed using a quadrupole-octupole collective Hamiltonian model, with parameters determined by constrained reflection-asymmetric and axially-symmetric relativistic mean-field calculations based …
