“…The like linear dependences discovered in Z, N plane for all elements in Mendeleev table are illustrated. Recent published [3,[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][16][17][18][19][20] and presented herein results allow the suggestion that the resonant interaction of the electron shell and the nuclei causes the existence of the magic numbers.…”

George Gamow's liquid drop model of the nucleus can account for most of the terms in the formula and gives rough estimates for the values of the coefficients. Its semi-numerical equation was first formulated in 1935 by Weizsäcker and in 1936 Bethe [1,2], and although refinements have been made to the coefficients over the years, the structure of the formula remains the same today. Their formula gives a good approximation for atomic masses and several other effects, but does not explain the appearance of magic numbers of protons and neutrons, and the extra binding-energy and measure of stability that are associated with these numbers of nucleons. Mavrodiev and Deliyergiyev [3] formalized the nuclear mass problem in the inverse problem framework. This approach allowed them to infer the underlying model parameters from experimental observation, rather than to predict the observations from the model parameters. They formulated the inverse problem for the numerically generalized semi-empirical mass formula of Bethe and von Weizsäcker going step-by-step through the AME2012 [4] nuclear database. The resulting parameterization described the measured nuclear masses of 2564 isotopes with a maximal deviation of less than 2.6 MeV, starting from the number of protons and number of neutrons equal to 1. The unknown functions in the generalized mass formula was discovered in a step-by-step way using the modified procedure realized in the algorithms developed by Aleksandrov [5-7] to solve nonlinear systems of equations via the Gauss-Newton method. In the presented herein article we describe a further development of the obtained by [3] formula by including additional factors,-magic numbers of protons, neutrons and electrons. This inclusion is based the well-known experimental data on the chemically induced polarization of nuclei and the effect of such this polarization on the rate of isotope decay. It allowed taking into account resonant interaction of the spins of nuclei and electron shells. As a result the maximal deviation from the measured nuclear masses of less than 1.9 MeV was reached. This improvement allowed prediction of the nuclear characteristics of the artificial elements 119 and 120.

“…In the last few years there has appeared new experimental data which demonstrated the dramatic change of decay rate due to the ionization of an atom and due to the resonant interaction between the electron shells and the nuclei [8][9][10][11][12][13][14].…”
