The survey of different configurations near Fermi surface of 138Nd results in 12 lowest configurations, at both positive- and negative-deformations. These are calculated to be the energetically lowest configurations. The results show that, for both EDFs, the rotational states based on positive-minimum, which is at gamma~35, are lower than the respective configurations with negative-deformation. The general trends of the spin-versus-omega curve, and the energy-versus-spin curve reproduce well those of the experimental data. Further, for the observed bands `T1-T8, the calculated results using SLy4L allows the configurations of the observed bands to be assigned. The calculations predict transitional quadrupole moments, which can be used to compare with future experimental data. The current cranked self-consistent mean-field calculations of the near-yrast high-spin rotational bands in 138Nd reproduce well the experimental data. The results suggest that the experimentally observed bands can be assigned to the calculated bands with various configurations at the positive-deformation. The predictions of the current calculations are complementary to that of the well-know macroscopic-microscopic calculations, both of which await future experiment to verify.

We implemented a variation after projection (VAP) algorithm based on a triaxially deformed Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov vacuum state. This is the first projected mean field study that includes all the quantum numbers (except parity), i.e., spin ($J$), isospin ($T$) and mass number ($A$). Systematic VAP calculations with $JTA$-projection have been performed for the even-even $sd$-shell nuclei with the USDB Hamiltonian. All the VAP ground state energies are within 500 keV above the exact shell model values. Our VAP calculations show that the spin projection has two important effects: (1) the spin projection is crucial in achieving good approximation of the full shell model calculation. (2) the intrinsic shapes of the VAP wavefunctions with spin projection are always triaxial, while the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov methods likely provide axial intrinsic shapes. Finally, our analysis suggests that one may not be possible to associate an intrinsic shape to an exact shell model wave function.
Recently we have proposed a reliable method to describe the rotational band in a fully microscopic manner. The method has recourse to the configuration-mixing of several cranked mean-field wave functions after the angular-momentum-projection. By applying the method with the Gogny D1S force as an effective interaction, we investigate the moments of inertia of the ground state rotational bands in a number of selected nuclei in the rare earth region. As another application we try to describe, for the first time, the two-neutron aligned band in $^{164}$Er, which crosses the ground state band and becomes the yrast states at higher spins. Fairly good overall agreements with the experimental data are achieved; for nuclei, where the pairing correlations are properly described, the agreements are excellent. This confirms that the previously proposed method is really useful for study of the nuclear rotational motion.
The effective field theory for collective rotations of triaxially deformed nuclei is generalized to odd-mass nuclei by including the angular momentum of the valence nucleon as an additional degree of freedom. The Hamiltonian is constructed up to next-to-leading order within the effective field theory formalism. The applicability of this Hamiltonian is examined by describing the wobbling bands observed in the lutetium isotopes $^{161,163,165,167}$Lu. It is found that by taking into account the next-to-leading order corrections, quartic in the rotor angular momentum, the wobbling energies $E_{textrm{wob}}$ and spin-rotational frequency relations $omega(I)$ are better described than with the leading order Hamiltonian.
The Kelvin circulation is the kinematical Hermitian observable that measures the true character of nuclear rotation. For the anisotropic oscillator, mean field solutions with fixed angular momentum and Kelvin circulation are derived in analytic form. The cranking Lagrange multipliers corresponding to the two constraints are the angular and vortex velocities. Self-consistent solutions are reported with a constraint to constant volume.
The DIRHB package consists of three Fortran computer codes for the calculation of the ground-state properties of even-even atomic nuclei using the framework of relativistic self-consistent mean-field models. Each code corresponds to a particular choice of spatial symmetry: the DIRHBS, DIRHBZ and DIRHBT codes are used to calculate nuclei with spherical symmetry, axially symmetric quadrupole deformation, and triaxial quadrupole shapes, respectively. Reflection symmetry is assumed in all three cases. The latest relativistic nuclear energy density functionals are implemented in the codes, thus enabling efficient and accurate calculations over the entire nuclide chart.
