Mass Table Calculations with Nuclear Density Functional Theory

To better understand nuclei and the strong nuclear force, it is useful to analyze global nuclear properties and trends across the nuclear chart. To this end, we utilized Nuclear Density Functional Theory with Skyrme Energy Density Functionals in conjunction with high-performance computing to perform large-scale mass table calculations for even-even nuclei. Using the binding energy, pairing gap, root-meansquare radius, and deformation data from these tables we were able to analyze the two-proton and two-neutron drip lines, neutron skin depth, two-proton radioactivity, and the effect of nuclear deformation on mass filters. We used numerous energy density functionals to assess the statistical and systematic errors associated with our calculations.
