Abstract

We employ a relativistic mean field model with NL3 parametrization to investigate the ground state properties of the superheavy nucleus, Z=124. The nuclei selected (from among complete isotopic series) for detailed investigation show that the nucleon density at the center is very low and therefore, these nuclei can be treated as semi-bubble nuclei. The considerable shell gap appears at neutron numbers N=172, 184, and 198 showing the magicity corresponding to these numbers. The results are compared with the macro-microscopic finite range droplet model wherever possible.
