Abstract
Background: Nonyrast states in neutron-rich nuclei are being investigated experimentally. These states reveal various aspects and details of the nuclear structure, such as the fluctuation around the axially symmetric shape.
Purpose: The beyond-mean-field effects in neutron-rich nuclei with are investigated. We focus on the role of collective mass in triaxial-shape dynamics.
Method: We employ the five-dimensional quadrupole collective Hamiltonian method with the potential obtained in a constrained Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approach with a Skyrme energy-density functional and the collective-mass functions obtained by the cranking approximation. The method includes triaxial deformations.
Results: We find that , and show -soft: A flat behavior in the potential energy surface along the triaxial deformation. Their low-lying spectra show a strong nucleus dependence, while those obtained with a collective mass assumed as constant are similar to each other. The energy ratio and the ratio show a unique property of the state, while the energy and ratios in neutron-deficient -soft nuclei with do not depend on nucleus so much.
Conclusions: Low-lying spectra are determined by not only the potential energy but also the collective mass. We clarify the important role of the collective mass in low-energy dynamics in the neutron-rich nuclei.
