Description
Covariant density functional theory is applied on a three-dimensional lattice in a microscopic and fully self-consistent manner, without imposing any symmetry restrictions [1], to investigate the superheavy nucleus $^{286}$No. Our findings reveal that the ground state exhibits a distinct non-axial octupole shape, which coexists with a tetrahedral isomeric state. The energy difference between these states is merely 0.12 MeV, and they are separated by a potential barrier of approximately 0.5 MeV. We analyze the presence of octupole correlations by examining the evolution of single-particle levels near the Fermi surface, which are influenced by octupole deformations [2].
