Structure properties of even-even actinides
Structure properties of fifty five even-even actinides have been calculated
using the Gogny D1S force and the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approach as well as
the configuration mixing method. Theoretical results are compared with
experimental data.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figures, proceeding of FUSION0
Global Properties of Spherical Nuclei Obtained from Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov Calculations with the Gogny Force
Selfconsistent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) calculations have been performed
with the Gogny force for nuclei along several constant Z and constant N chains,
with the purpose of extracting the macroscopic part of the binding energy using
the Strutinsky prescription. The macroscopic energy obtained in this way is
compared to current liquid drop formulas. The evolution of the single particle
levels derived from the HFB calculations along the constant Z and constant N
chains and the variations of the different kinds of nuclear radii are also
analysed. Those radii are shown to follow isospin-dependent three parameter
laws close to the phenomenological formulas which reproduce experimental data.Comment: 17 pages in LaTeX and 17 figures in eps. Phys. Rev. C, accepted for

Effect of differences in proton and neutron density distributions on fission barriers
The neutron and proton density distributions obtained in constrained
Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov calculations with the Gogny force along the fission
paths of 232Th, 236U, 238U and 240Pu are analyzed.
Significant differences in the multipole deformations of neutron and proton
densities are found. The effect on potential energy surfaces and on barrier
heights of an additional constraint imposing similar spatial distributions to
neutrons and protons, as assumed in macroscopic-microscopic models, is studied.Comment: 5 pages in Latex, 4 figures in ep
The Neutron Halo in Heavy Nuclei Calculated with the Gogny Force
The proton and neutron density distributions, one- and two-neutron separation
energies and radii of nuclei for which neutron halos are experimentally
observed, are calculated using the self-consistent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov
method with the effective interaction of Gogny. Halo factors are evaluated
assuming hydrogen-like antiproton wave functions. The factors agree well with
experimental data. They are close to those obtained with Skyrme forces and with
the relativistic mean field approach.Comment: 13 pages in Latex and 17 figures in ep
Structure of even-even nuclei using a mapped collective Hamiltonian and the D1S Gogny interaction
A systematic study of low energy nuclear structure at normal deformation is
carried out using the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory extended by the Generator
Coordinate Method and mapped onto a 5-dimensional collective quadrupole
Hamiltonian. Results obtained with the Gogny D1S interaction are presented from
dripline to dripline for even-even nuclei with proton numbers Z=10 to Z=110 and
neutron numbers N less than 200. The properties calculated for the ground
states are their charge radii, 2-particle separation energies, correlation
energies, and the intrinsic quadrupole shape parameters. For the excited
spectroscopy, the observables calculated are the excitation energies and
quadrupole as well as monopole transition matrix elements. We examine in this
work the yrast levels up to J=6, the lowest excited 0^+ states, and the two
next yrare 2^+ states. The theory is applicable to more than 90% of the nuclei
which have tabulated measurements. The data set of the calculated properties of
1712 even-even nuclei, including spectroscopic properties for 1693 of them, are
provided in CEA website and EPAPS repository with this article \cite{epaps}.Comment: 51 pages with 26 Figures and 4 internal tables; this version is
