Nithu Ashok, Antony Joseph
TL;DR
This paper systematically investigates alpha and cluster decay in platinum isotopes using Skyrme Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory, analyzing shell effects and estimating half-lives with the Universal Decay Law.
Contribution
It provides a comprehensive theoretical analysis of decay modes in Pt isotopes, incorporating multiple Skyrme forces and decay laws for the first time.
Findings
Shell closure significantly influences decay probabilities.
Half-lives estimated align well with experimental data.
Geiger-Nuttel plots remain linear for studied isotopes.
Abstract
The feasibility of alpha and cluster decay from Pt isotopes has been investigated within the framework of Skyrme Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory. Calculation has been carried out for various Skyrme forces. Harmonic oscillator and transformed harmonic oscillator basis are used to solve HFB equations. The role played by shell closure is withal analysed. Half-lives are estimated with the help of Universal Decay Law (UDL). Geiger-Nuttel plots are also plotted and successfully preserves its linear nature.
