Neutron drip line in the deformed relativistic Hartree–Bogoliubov theory in continuum: Oxygen to Calcium
The location of the neutron drip line, currently known for only the lightest elements, remains a fundamental question in nuclear physics. Its description is a challenge for microscopic nuclear energy density functionals, as it must take into account in a realistic way not only the nuclear potential, but also pairing …
