Multiscale Physics of Atomic Nuclei from First Principles by Z. H. Sun, A. Ekström, C. Forssén, G. Hagen, G. R. Jansen, T. Papenbrock

“…Our calculations accurately reproduce—within theoretical error bars—available experimental data for low-lying collective states and the electromagnetic quadrupole transitions in ^{20−30}Ne. In addition, we reveal coexisting spherical and deformed shapes in ^{30}Ne, which indicates the breakdown of the magic neutron number N=20 as the key nucleus ^{28}O is approached, and we predict that the drip line nuclei ^{32,34}Ne are strongly deformed and collective. …”
