Abstract
Shape-phase transition in neutron-rich Cr isotopes around $N=40$ is investigated by employing the collective Hamiltonian approach. The inertial functions for large-amplitude vibration and rotation are evaluated by the local normal modes along the axial quadrupole collective coordinate using the Skyrme and pairing energy-density functionals. The time-odd components of the mean fields are fully included in the derived masses. The low-lying spectra obtained by requantizing the collective Hamiltonian show an excellent agreement with the recent experimental data. Gradual change from spherical to axially deformed shapes in between $N=34$ and 38 is well described.
