A deformed relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov theory in continuum has been developed and the halo phenomenon in deformed weakly bound nuclei is investigated. These weakly bound quantum systems present interesting examples for the study of the interdependence between the deformation of the core and the particles in the halo. Magnesium and neon isotopes are studied and detailed results are presented for the deformed neutron-rich and weakly bound nuclei 42Mg. The core of this nucleus is prolate, but the halo has a slightly oblate shape. This indicates a decoupling of the halo orbitals from the deformation of the core. The generic conditions for the existence of halos in deformed nuclei and for the occurrence of this decoupling effect are discussed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-11-06T03:51:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "21.10.Gv", "27.40.+z" ], "keywords": [ "deformed relativistic hartree-bogoliubov theory", "deformed nuclei", "weakly bound nuclei 42mg", "weakly bound quantum systems", "neutron halos" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AIP", "journal": "AIP Conf.
