Stoitsov, N. Michel, and K. Matsuyanagi<br/>We propose a new method to solve the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov equations for weakly bound nuclei, which works for both spherical and axially deformed cases. In this approach, the quasiparticle wave functions are expanded in a complete set of analytical Pöschl-Teller-Ginocchio and Bessel/Coulomb wave ...<br/>[Phys. Rev.
