  The structures of He and Be even-even isotopes are investigated using an
axially symmetric Hartree-Fock approach with a Skyrme-IIIls mean field
potential. In these simple HF calculations, He and Be isotopes appear to be
prolate in their ground states and Be isotopes have oblate shape isomeric
states. It is also shown that there exists a level crossing when the nuclear
shape changes from the prolate state to the oblate state. The single neutron
levels of Be isotopes exhibit a neutron magic number 6 instead of 8 and show
that the level inversion between 1/2- and 1/2+ levels occurs only for a largely
deformed isotope. Protons are bound stronger in the isotope with more neutrons
while neutron levels are somewhat insensitive to the number of neutrons and
thus the nuclear size and also the neutron skin become larger as the neutron
number increases. In these simple calculations with Skyrme-IIIls interaction no
system with a clear indication of neutron halo was found among He and Be
isotopes. Instead of it we have found 8He+2n, 2n+8He+2n, and 16Be+2n like chain
structures with clusters of two correlated neutrons. It is also shown that 8He
and 14Be in their ground states are below the neutron drip line in which all
nucleons are bound with negative energy and that 16Be in its ground state is
beyond the neutron drip line with two neutrons in positive energy levels.
