Covariant density functional theory input for r-process simulations in actinides and superheavy nuclei: The ground state and fission properties

Journal Article Taninah, A. ; Agbemava, S. E. ; Afanasjev, A. V. - Physical Review. C

A systematic investigation of the ground-state and fission properties of even-even actinides and superheavy nuclei with Z = 90–120 from the two-proton up to two-neutron drip lines with proper assessment of systematic theoretical uncertainties has been performed for the first time in the framework of covariant density functional theory (CDFT). Furthermore, these results provide a necessary theoretical input for the r-process modeling in heavy nuclei and, in particular, for the study of fission cycling. Four state-of-the-art globally tested covariant energy density functionals (CEDFs), namely, DD-PC1, DD-ME2, NL3*, and PC-PK1, representing the major classes of the CDFT models are employed inmore »« less

Properties of nuclei in the nobelium region studied within the covariant, Skyrme, and Gogny energy density functionals

Journal Article Dobaczewski, J. ; Afanasjev, A. V. ; Bender, M. ; ... - Nuclear Physics. A

We calculate properties of the ground and excited states of nuclei in the nobelium region for proton and neutron numbers of 92 ≤ Z ≤ 104 and 144 ≤ N ≤ 156 , respectively. We use three different energy-density-functional (EDF) approaches, based on covariant, Skyrme, and Gogny functionals, each with two different parameter sets. In conclusion, a comparative analysis of the results obtained for quasiparticle spectra, odd–even and two-particle mass staggering, and moments of inertia allows us to identify single-particle and shell effects that are characteristic to these different models and to illustrate possible systematic uncertainties related to using themore » EDF modelling.« less

Propagation of statistical uncertainties in covariant density functional theory: Ground state observables and single-particle properties

Journal Article Agbemava, S. E. ; Afanasjev, Anatoli V. ; Taninah, A. - Physical Review C

Statistical errors in ground state observables and single-particle properties of spherical even-even nuclei and their propagation to the limits of nuclear landscape have been investigated in covariant density functional theory (CDFT) for the first time. Here, we consider only covariant energy density functionals with non-linear density dependency. Statistical errors for binding energies and neutron skins significantly increase on approaching two-neutron drip line. On the contrary, such a trend does not exist for statistical errors in charge radii and two-neutron separation energies. The absolute and relative energies of the single-particle states in the vicinity of the Fermi level are characterized by low statistical errors (more »« less
