Abstract

We study the superheavy nucleus 254No in the framework of the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approximation with the finite-range density-dependent Gogny force, at zero and high angular momentum. The properties of the ground state rotational band and the fission barriers are discussed as a function of angular momentum. We found a two-humped barrier up to spin values of (30-40)Planck's over 2pi and a one-humped barrier for higher spins. We reproduce fairly well with the binding energy, the ground state deformation, the gamma-ray energies, and the bound on the fission barrier height measured at high spin.
