Global study of quadrupole correlation effects
  We discuss the systematics of ground-state quadrupole correlations of binding energies and mean-square charge radii for all even-even nuclei, from O16 up to the superheavies, for which data are available. To that aim we calculate their correlated J=0 ground state by means of the angular-momentum and particle-number projected generator coordinate method, using the axial mass quadrupole moment as the generator coordinate and self-consistent mean-field states only restricted by axial, parity, and time-reversal symmetries. The calculation is performed within the framework of a non-relativistic self-consistent mean-field model using the same non-relativistic Skyrme interaction SLy4 and a density-dependent pairing force to generate the mean-field configurations and mix them.
