Configuration mixing of angular-momentum and particle-number projected triaxial HFB states using the Skyrme energy density functional

Abstract

We present a method based on mean-field states generated by triaxial quadrupole constraints which are projected on particle number and angular momentum and mixed by the generator coordinate method on the quadrupole moment. This method is equivalent to a seven-dimensional GCM calculation, mixing all five degrees of freedom of the quadrupole operator and the gauge angles for protons and neutrons. A first application to Mg24 permits to analyze in detail the effects of triaxial deformations and of K-mixing.
