Description of the ground state of axially deformed nuclei within the Relativistic Hartree–Fock–Bogoliubov model

Abstract

The Relativistic Hartree–Fock–Bogoliubov model for axially deformed nuclei (RHFBz) is presented. The model involves a phenomenological Lagrangian with density-dependent meson–nucleon couplings in the particle-hole channel and the central part of the Gogny force in the particle–particle channel. The RHFBz equations are solved by expansion in the basis of a deformed harmonic oscillator. Illustrative RHFBz calculations are performed for Neon isotopes.
