Abstract:
Whether Z=126 is a proton magic number has been controversial in nuclear physics. The even-even Ubh126 isotopes are calculated based on the DRHBc calculations with PC-PK1. The evolutions of quadrupole deformation and pairing energies for neutron and proton are analyzed to study the possible nuclear magicity. Spherical shape occurs and neutron pairing energy vanishes at N=258 and 350, which are the results of possible neutron magicity, while the proton pairing energy never vanishes in Ubh isotopes, which does not support the proton magicity at Z=126. In the single-proton spectrum, there is no discernible gap at Z=126, while significant gaps appear at Z=120 and 138. Therefore, Z=126 is not supported as a proton magic number, while Z=120 and 138 are suggested as candidates of proton magic numbers.
