Chaos assisted decay of $^{180}Ta^m$

Nuclear Theory 2008-07-24 v1

Abstract

The decay of the J=9J=9^- isomeric state in 180Ta^{180}Ta is described in a model based on the phenomenon of chaos assisted tunneling. The model attempts to explain the enhanced decay of the isomeric state when irradiated by gamma-rays or subjected to Coulomb excitations.
