Abstract
Based on the analysis of neutron-separation energies, Ozawa et al proposed a new magic number N =16 in light neutron-rich nuclei. The deformed and spherical relativistic mean-field(RMF) calculations have been carried out for N =16 isotones. The numerical relativistic mean-field results show there is a shape transition in N =16 isotones. This is the possible cause of the appearance of the new magic number in someneutron-rich nuclei.
