On the stability and the similarity of N=82 isotones
/ Authors
/ Abstract
Here we study the stability and the similarity of all even $58\leq Z\leq 70, N=82 isotones. We confirm the two decades old study of one of the authors (AA) regarding the extra-ordinary stability and the similarity of these nuclei. We present here a new evidence which shows very strongly the said magicity of those nuclei and as such there exists a new ``plateau'' of magicity. Three well studied theoretical models which have been successfully applied in nuclear physics are used here to study the above phenomena. None of these model is able to reproduce the similarity and the doubly magic character of these nuclei. Therefore this hints at ``new physics'' in these N=82 isotones.
