Abstract
In this paper, we investigate features of the ground state of some nuclei far from the stability for isotope chains with proton numbers Z=18 and 20. Our aim is to predict the eventual existence of magic numbers in these exotic nuclei. For this purpose, we use two methods: the non relativistic Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) approach based on SLy4 Skyrme functional and the relativistic (so-called covariant) density functional theory (CDFT) by using the DD-ME2 force parametrization. We compare our results with the available experimental data and with the predictions of other models such as Finite Range Droplet Model (FRDM). Our present investigation predicts that N=32 and N=40 are magic numbers for Ar and Ca isotopes.
