STUDY OF NEUTRON MAGIC DRIP-LINE NUCLEI WITHIN RELATIVISTIC MEAN-FIELD PLUS BCS APPROACH

Abstract

Encouraged by the success of relativistic mean-field plus BCS (RMF + BCS) approach for the description of the ground state properties of the chains of isotopes of proton magic nuclei with proton number Z = 8, 20, 28, 50 and 82 as well as those of proton sub-magic nuclei with Z = 40, we have further employed it, in an analogous manner, for a detailed calculations of the ground state properties of the neutron magic isotones with neutron number N = 8, 20, 28, 50, 82 and 126 as well as those of neutron sub-magic isotones with N = 40 using the TMA force parametrizations in order to explore low lying resonance and other exotic phenomenon near drip-lines. The results of these calculations for wave function, single particle pairing gaps etc. are presented here to demonstrate the general validity of our RMF + BCS approach. It is found that, in some of the proton-rich nuclei in the vicinity of the proton drip-line, the main contribution to the pairing correlations is provided by the low-lying resonant states, in addition to the contributions coming from the states close to the Fermi surface, which results extended proton drip-line for isotonic chain.
