Universal decay law in charged-particle emission and exotic cluster radioactivity

arXiv:0909.4492 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.103.072501

Abstract

A linear universal decay formula is presented starting from the microscopic mechanism of the charged-particle emission. It relates the half-lives of monopole radioactive decays with the -values of the outgoing particles as well as the masses and charges of the nuclei involved in the decay. This relation is found to be a generalization of the Geiger-Nuttall law in radioactivity and explains well all known cluster decays. Predictions on the most likely emissions of various clusters are presented.
