摘要

This research article is a follow up of an earlier work by M. Ikram et al., reported in Int. J. Mod. Phys. E 25, 1650103 (2016) where we searched for I > magic numbers in experimentally confirmed doubly magic nucleonic cores in light to heavy mass region (i.e., (16) O-(208) P b) by injecting I >'s into them. In the present manuscript, working within the state of the art relativistic mean field theory with the inclusion of I > N and I > I > interaction in addition to nucleon-meson NL 3(au) effective force, we extend the search of lambda magic numbers in multi- I > hypernuclei using the predicted doubly magic nucleonic cores (292)120, (304)120, (360)132, (370)132, (336)138, (396)138 of the elusive superheavy mass regime. In analogy to well established signatures of magicity in conventional nuclear theory, the prediction of hypernuclear magicities is made on the basis of one-, two- I > separation energy (S (I >),S (2I >)) and two lambda shell gaps (delta (2I >)) in multi- I > hypernuclei. The calculations suggest that the I > numbers 92, 106, 126, 138, 184, 198, 240, and 258 might be the I > shell closures after introducing the I >'s in the elusive superheavy nucleonic cores. The appearance of new lambda shell closures apart from the nucleonic ones predicted by various relativistic and non-relativistic theoretical investigations can be attributed to the relatively weak strength of the spin-orbit coupling in hypernuclei compared to normal nuclei. Further, the predictions made in multi- I > hypernuclei under study resembles closely the magic numbers in conventional nuclear theory suggested by various relativistic and non-relativistic theoretical models. Moreover, in support of the I > shell closure, the investigation of I > pairing energy and effective I > pairing gap has been made. We noticed a very close agreement of the predicted I > shell closures with the survey made on the pretext of S (I)>, S (2I >), and delta (2I >) except for the appearance of magic numbers corresponding to I > = 156 which manifest in I > effective pairing gap and pairing energy. Also, the lambda single-particle spectrum is analyzed to mark the energy shell gap for further strengthening the predictions made on the basis of separation energies and shell gaps. Lambda and nucleon spin-orbit interactions are analyzed to confirm the reduction in magnitude of I > spin-orbit interaction compared to the nucleonic case, however the interaction profile is similar in both the cases. Lambda and nucleon density distributions have been investigated to reveal the impurity effect of I > hyperons which make the depression of central density of the core of superheavy doubly magic nuclei. Lambda skin structure is also seen.
