Prolate-to-oblate transition and backbending along the yrast line induced by quasiparticle alignment

The yrast lines in Kr isotopes with N=42, 44, and 46 are investigated in a beyond mean field framework with both prolate-oblate coexistence and quasiparticle alignment taken into account. Quasiparticle orbitals with high-j and low-Ω on the oblate side are shown to be responsible for the sharp backbe...
