The calculations are carried out within the self-consistent constrained
Skyrme-Hartree-Fock+BCS (SHF+BCS) framework. The effective Skyrme
force SkM [9] is used in the particle-hole channel,
whereas a seniority pairing force is taken in the
particle-particle channel to describe nuclear superfluidity. The
seniority pairing force is treated within the BCS procedure, with the
strength parameters defined as in Ref. [10]:

The scaling factors of Eq. (2), and
, were adjusted to reproduce the experimental
[11] neutron (
MeV) and proton
(
MeV) pairing gaps in Fm.
The pairing-active space
consisted of the lowest () proton (neutron) single-particle
states.
The self-consistent HF+BCS equations were solved using the code HFODD
(v.2.25b) [12,13,14] that employs
the 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
spherical oscillator shells.
