Abstract

The relativistic mean-field model with density-dependent DD-ME2 and DD-PC1 interactions has been used for the investigation of the ground-state shape evolution of neutron-rich 83–91 As isotopes. For this purpose, the potential energy curve and the potential energy surface of each nucleus of interest have been examined. From analyzing the potential energy surfaces of the neutron-rich 83–91 As isotopic chain, 87 As is suggested to be a possible candidate for triaxial nucleus. Furthermore, studies of some ground-state nuclear properties of As isotopes such as energy, size and deformation have been obtained.
