Abstract

The FDSM prediction of oblate superdeformed minima in nuclides with 84< Z<90 and 124< N<130 is studied with a Strutinsky method calculation of energy surfaces. Oblate superdeformed minima are found for slightly heavier nuclides. A critique of the application of the FDSM in the heavy elements is presented. Prolate superdeformation near A = 220 is re-examined.
