TL;DR: In this paper, the extrapolation of nuclear shell structure to the region of superheavy nuclei in self-consistent mean-field models using a large number of parametrizations was studied.

TL;DR: In this paper, the previously developed two center shell model for symmetric fission has been extended to break-ups into unequal fragments The potentials of the separate fragments have equal depth The rounded barrier between them can have varying height The two fragments can also have different deformations Generalized l ·s- and l 2 terms are included This allows for the description of a great variety of nuclear shapes.

TL;DR: A survey of the adjustment of the parameters of the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock (SHF) model for a self-consistent description of nuclear structure and low-energy excitations is presented in this article.

TL;DR: In this paper, the shell structure of superheavy nuclei was investigated within various parametrizations of relativistic and non-relativistic nuclear mean field models, and the heaviest known even-even nucleus was used as a benchmark to estimate the predictive value of the models.

TL;DR: In this paper, the pairing gap, a measure for nuclear pairing correlations, in chains of spherical, semi-magic nuclei in the framework of self-consistent nuclear mean field models, is discussed.
