The rapid neutron capture or 'r process' of nucleosynthesis is believed to be responsible for
the production of approximately half the natural abundance of heavy elements found on the …

During the last decade, six new superheavy elements were added into the seventh period of
the periodic table, with the approval of their names and symbols. This milestone was …

We systematically investigate the α-decay and spontaneous fission half-lives for heavy and
superheavy nuclei with proton number Z⩾ 90. The α-decay half-lives are obtained by the …

We computed a new set of static fission properties suited for r-process calculations. The
potential energy surfaces and collective inertias of 3640 nuclei in the superheavy region are …

The α-decay half-lives of recently synthesized superheavy nuclei (SHN) are investigated by
employing a unified fission model (UFM) and Royer's analytical formula (2000 J. Phys. G …

We present a new theoretical approach to evaluate α-decay properties of deformed nuclei,
namely the multichannel cluster model (MCCM). The deformed α-nucleus potential is taken …

The current status of the experimental searches for rare alpha and beta decays is reviewed.
Several interesting observations of alpha and beta decays, previously unseen due to their …

The α-decay half-lives of recently synthesized superheavy nuclei (SHN) are investigated by
employing a unified fission model (UFM) where a new method to calculate the assault …

In the present work, considering the blocking effect of unpaired nucleons and the orbital
angular momentum taken away by the emitted α particle, we put forward an improved Geiger …

We perform an extensive investigation on α decays in both even-A and odd-A nuclei within
the new version of the generalized density-dependent cluster model. The microscopic …
