Abstract The octupole correlations of the $K^\pi=5/2^+$ ground state and the rotational spectrum built on it in $^{229}$Th are studied using the microscopic relativistic density functional theory on a three-dimensional lattice space and the reflection-asymmetric triaxial particle rotor model. It is found that $^{229}$Th has a ground state with static axial octupole and quadrupole deformations. The occurrence of octupole correlations, driven by the octupole deformation, is analyzed through the evolution of single-particle levels around the Fermi surface. The experimental energy spectrum and the electromagnetic transition probabilities, including $B(E2)$ and $B(M1)$, are reasonably well reproduced.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
