  "abstract": "We present updated and extended results for the $\\eta$- and $\\eta'$-nucleus bound state energies, obtained by solving the Schr\\\"{o}dinger and Klein-Gordon equations with complex optical potentials, for a wide range of nuclei. The $\\eta$ and $\\eta'$ nuclear potentials are obtained in the local density approximation from the mass shift of these mesons in nuclear matter, which is calculated within the quark-meson coupling model. Our results show that the $\\eta$ and $\\eta'$ mesons are expected to form mesic nuclei with all the nuclei considered. However, the signal for the formation of the $\\eta$- and $\\eta'$-mesic nuclei may be difficult to identify experimentally due to possible large widths.",
