Abstract
To describe the yrast states in weakly bound nuclei, I directly solve the coordinate-space cranked Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov equation on a three-dimensional lattice with the continuum states discretized in a box. After the numerical demonstration for the ground-state band in a medium-mass nucleus, I apply the newly developed method to neutron-rich even- Mg isotopes. I find that the appearance of the significantly low state in is mainly due to the suppression of pairing. The calculation predicts that the state in appears as high in energy as in whereas the triaxial deformation is enhanced in nonzero spin states. The present numerical framework offers a practical approach for investigating the near yrast states systematically and revealing structures unique in drip-line nuclei.
