In our SHF+BCS approach, we use the Skyrme energy density
functional in its SLy4
parameterization[11] in the particle-hole channel, whereas
two different pairing schemes were implemented in the
particle-particle channel. The SHF+BCS(G) scheme
employs the seniority pairing force with strength parameters defined
as in Ref.[12], i.e.,
|

additionally scaled by

In the
SHF+BCS() scheme, we apply the
state-dependent -interaction[13] with commonly used
parameterization variants,[14] which are summarized as

adjusted to reproduce the experimental[15] neutron
(
MeV) and proton (
MeV) pairing
gaps in Fm. As we deal with contact interactions, we use
a finite pairing-active space defined by including
lowest single-particle states for neutrons and protons, respectively.
In the SHF+BCS() approach, the pairing gap is state dependent.
Therefore, the average (spectral) gaps,

were
used as measures of experimental pairing gaps deduced from the
odd-even mass staggering. In Eq. (5)

Ref.[16] for a more detailed discussion).

The calculations were carried out using the code HFODD
(v.2.19l)[17,18,19] that solves self-consistent HF
equations by using a Cartesian 3D deformed harmonic-oscillator
finite basis. In the calculations, we took the lowest 1140
single-particle states for the basis. This corresponds to 17
oscillator shells at the spherical limit.
