Abstract
Finite-temperature Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory using Skyrme interactions and relativistic Hartree-Fock effective Lagrangians predicts as being a possible candidate for the finite-temperature pairing re-entrance phenomenon. For this proton-drip-line nucleus, proton resonant states are expected to contribute substantially to pairing correlations and the two predicted critical temperatures are MeV and MeV. It is also shown that pairing re-entrance modifies the proton single-particle energies around the Fermi level, as well as occupation numbers and quasiparticle levels. The understanding of pairing re-entrance in presently challenges our understanding of exotic matter under extreme conditions.
