$\alpha$-Decay Lifetime in Superheavy Nuclei With $A>282$

Nuclear Theory 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

Nuclei with A>282A>282 have been studied in the Relativistic Mean Field approach using the force FSU Gold and a zero range pairing interaction. The Euler-Lagrange equations have been solved in the co-ordinate space. Alpha nucleus potential has been constructed with the DDM3Y1 interaction, which has an exponential density dependence, in the double folding model using the nucleon densities in the daughter nucleus and the α\alpha particle. Half lives of α\alpha decay have been calculated for tunneling of the α\alpha particle through the potential barrier in the WKB approximation and assuming a constant preformation probability. The resulting values agree well with experimental measurements.
