The clear S shape of the heat capacity is found around the critical temperature $T_c \sim 0.6-0.9$ MeV by using extrapolating the experimental level densities. Since the experimental data only covers the excitation energy up to 6.0–8.5 MeV, the back-shifted Fermi-gas model is used to extend the experimental level densities up to an excitation energy of $\sim$180 MeV. The characteristic feature of the heat capacities is known as a signature of the pairing transition and investigated in some hot nuclei.
