Abstract
In this work, a systematic study of the shape evolutions of the even-even molybdenum isotopes is carried out within the density-dependent meson-exchange theory. For each shape isomeric state, we have investigated the isoscalar giant monopole resonances (ISGMR) using the quasiparticle finite amplitude method (QFAM). This method allows us to explore the behavior of these resonances in various nuclear deformation. Large quadrupole deformation parameter, both in oblate and prolate configuration, causes the shoulders of ISGMR to occur in the high-energy region rather than the low-energy region. It is observed that main peak of ISGMR permutes position with the shoulders. This intriguing and noteworthy behavior is attributed to the indirect effects of deformation on the monopole response, achieved through the splitting of the neutron canonical spectrum into (J+1/2) non-degenerate states. Under spherical symmetry, only the shoulders are affected by the neutron excess. Indeed, when sub-shells are filled at the same orbital, this contributes to the shift of the shoulders toward the low-energy region while increasing their magnitudes. The observed shoulders are identified as soft monopoles, consistent with their conventional interpretation. Furthermore, the soft monopole mode can be explained also by the deformation-induced coupling between the ISGMR and the component K = 0 of isoscalar giant quadrupole resonance (ISGQR) strength.
