Phys. Rev. C 61, 034311 (2000) [14 pages]Quadrupole deformations of neutron-drip-line nuclei studied within the Skyrme Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approachReceived 3 September 1999; published 17 February 2000 We introduce a local-scaling point transformation to allow for modifying the asymptotic properties of the deformed three-dimensional Cartesian harmonic oscillator wave functions. The resulting single-particle bases are very well suited for solving the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov equations for deformed drip-line nuclei. We then present results of self-consistent calculations performed for the Mg isotopes and for light nuclei located near the two-neutron drip line. The results suggest that for all even-even elements with Z=10–18 the most weakly bound nucleus has an oblate ground-state shape. © 2000 The American Physical Society URL:
