Abstract
The behavior of several nuclear properties with temperature is analyzed within the framework of the Finite Temperature Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (FTHFB) theory with the Gogny force and large configuration spaces. Thermal shape fluctuations in the quadrupole degree of freedom, around the mean field solution, are taken into account with the Landau prescription. As representative examples the nuclei 164Er, 152Dy and 192Hg are studied. Numerical results for the superfluid to normal and deformed to spherical shape transitions are presented. We found a substantial effect of the fluctuations on the average value of several observables. In particular, we get a decrease in the critical temperature (Tc) for the shape transition as compared with the plain FTHFB prediction as well as a washing out of the shape transition signatures. The new values of Tc are closer to the ones found in Strutinsky calculations and with the Pairing Plus Quadrupole model Hamiltonian.
