Abstract: | It has been found that high-order deformation (e.g. β
6) can have important effects on the structures of superheavy nuclei. In the present work, we investigate octupole deformation
effects on superheavy nuclei with an improved potential-energy-surface (PES) calculation by including reflection-asymmetric
deformations in a space of (β
2, β
3, β
4, β
5). The calculations give various deformations including highly deformed (β
2 ≈ 0.4) and superdeformed (β2 ≈ 0.7) shapes. The octupole-deformation degree of freedom mainly affects the fission barrier beyond the second minimum of
PES. |
