  Properties of transitional Lu and spherical Ta ground-state proton emitters
are calculated with the Relativistic Hartree Bogoliubov (RHB) model. The NL3
effective interaction is used in the mean-field Lagrangian, and pairing
correlations are described by the pairing part of the finite range Gogny
interaction D1S. Proton separation energies, ground-state quadrupole
deformations, single-particle orbitals occupied by the odd valence proton, and
the corresponding spectroscopic factors are compared with recent experimental
data, and with results of the macroscopic-microscopic mass model.
