Nickel-78 is a ‘doubly magic’ isotope, supercomputing calculations confirm (sciencebulletin.org)

I would have commented on the original site to get the attention of the author, but they don't seem to support comments (Science Bulletin seems to be little more than a press release repeater).

Computer simulations of physical systems cannot "confirm" anything. They "predict" things, which are then "confirmed" by experiment.
