Description
Recent experimental studies of exotic nuclei have revealed limitations in our understanding of nuclear shell evolution and magicity. We present evidence that a relativistic description of nuclear structure, particularly considering the unique contribution of a spin-0 boson mediator in the nucleon-nucleon interaction, is crucial for explaining the emergence and evolution of magic numbers from stable to exotic nuclei. This novel perspective successfully describes the major experimental findings on nuclear magicity across the nuclear chart while offering testable predictions for future investigations.
