We have theoretically studied potential bubble nuclei ({sup 20,22}O, {sup 34,36}Si, and {sup 46}Ar), which are experimentally accessible and have attracted several studies in the recent past. Relativistic mean field is employed in conjunction with the NL–SH parameter set. Our results show that among the possible candidates, {sup 22}Oand {sup 34}Si may be the most prominent candidates, showing significant depletion of density at the center, which could be verified experimentally in the near future with some of the experiments underway.
