Erosion of N = 28 shell gap, shape coexistence and monopole transitions in the vicinity of 44S

=Abstract=

In this study, we discuss the disappearance of the neutron magic number 28 and the subsequent shape coexistence in neutron-rich isotones, 40Mg, 42Si and 44S.

Numerical calculations by antisymmetrized molecular dynamics have shown that the 0+ states with different nuclear shapes coexist within small excitation energies. It has been found for the first time that the mixing ratios differ among the isotones, and that it is strongly reflected in the monopole transition strengths.
