In the framework of the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock approach with 36 sets of the TI J parameterizations,the tensor force effect on the evolution of the single-proton states in the calcium isotopes is systematically investigated.It is shown that the single-proton states with higher angular momenta are influenced significantly by the tensor force and the trend in the evolution of somesingle-particle energy differences with the mass number of the isotopes depends sensitively on a parameter βT associated with the intensity of the tensor force.To understand this phenomenon,we analyze the spin-orbit potentials and the radial wave functions of relevant single-proton orbits in detail.In addition,it is found that some TI J interactions could cause the 2s1/21d3/2 energy level inversion in 48Ca.
