TL;DR: In this article, the atomic masses and ground-state deformations of 4023 nuclides ranging from 16O to 279112 were calculated on the basis of a Yukawa-plus-exponential macroscopic model and a folded-Yukawa microscopic model, with new terms included to account for several previously neglected physical effects.

TL;DR: In this article, a folded-Yukawa single-particle potential was used to calculate the ground-state masses of 28 nuclei ranging from 109 Cd to 252 Cf.

TL;DR: In this paper, the shell structure of the nucleus at large deformation, its affinity for reflection asymmetric or necked-in distortions and its response to rotation were studied theoretically using both simple models and more realistic numerical calculations.
Abstract: Nuclear superdeformation is studied theoretically using both simple models and more realistic numerical calculations. From the simple models general rules are formulated about the shell structure of the nucleus at large deformation, its affinity for reflection asymmetric or necked-in distortions and its response to rotation. The numerical calculations are based on realistic single-particle schemes and indicate that important trends in superdeformed nuclei may be understood from the simpler considerations. Particular attention is focussed on the 2:1 prolate configuration.
