The effects of the nuclear current in the antimagnetic rotation band of 105Cd have been investigated in a fully self-consistent and microscopic way by using the tilted axis cranking relativistic mean-field model.It was found that the inclusion of nuclear current leads to a higher angular momentum and thus a larger kinetic moment of inertia at a given rotational frequency.As a consequence,the B(E2) values with current are always smaller than those without current.
The α-cluster structures for 12^C and 16^O are investigated in the framework of the covariant density functional theory, where the pairing correlation is treated with a particle number conserving shell-model-like approach. The ground states of 12^C and 160 have been calculated and the density distributions demonstrate an equilateral triangle 3α clustering for 12^C and a regular tetrahedron 4α clustering for 16^O The existence of linear nα chain structure of both 12^C and 16^O is revealed at high quadrupole deformation.
Nuclear masses ranging from O to Ti isotopes are systematically investigated with relativistic continuum Hartree-Bogoliubov(RCHB)theory,which can provide a proper treatment of pairing correlations in the presence of the continuum.From O to Ti isotopes,there are 402 nuclei predicted to be bound by the density functional PC-PK1.For the 234 nuclei with mass measured,the root mean square(rms)deviation is 2.23 MeV.It is found that the proton drip-lines predicted with various mass models are roughly the same and basically agree with the observation.The neutron drip-lines predicted,however,are quite diferent.Due to the continuum couplings,the neutron drip-line nuclei predicted are extended further neutron-rich than other mass models.By comparison with finite-range droplet model(FRDM),the neutron drip-line nucleus predicted by RCHB theory has respectively2(O),10(Ne),10(Na),6(Mg),8(Al),6(Si),8(P),6(S),14(K),10(Ca),10(Sc),and 12(Ti)more neutrons.
