Title: Effect of neutron orbitals on the nuclear shape in neutron-deficient and neutron-rich zirconium nuclei

Abstract

The neutron-deficient and neutron-rich zirconium nuclei are studied using statistical theory. The deformation dependence of occupation numbers of the neutron orbitals in these nuclei near the Fermi level is investigated. The preference of the neutrons to occupy or vacate a particular orbital is found to contribute a particular shape to the nucleus. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
