Background: Decay constants of unstable nuclei and particles are quantum constants. Recent controversy on the existence (versus non-existence) of variability in the observation of decay rate can be settled by considering mixing in decay…
The self-consistent proton-neutron quasiparticle random phase approximation approach is employed to calculate $\beta$-decay half-lives of neutron-rich even-even nuclei with $8\leqslant Z \leqslant 30$. A newly proposed nonlinear…
We use very large cosmological N--body simulations to obtain accurate predictions for the two-point correlations and power spectra of mass-limited samples of galaxy clusters. We consider two currently popular cold dark matter (CDM)…
Using the framework of nuclear energy density functionals we examine the conditions for single-nucleon localization and formation of cluster structures in finite nuclei. We propose to characterize localization by the ratio of the dispersion…
Evidence of massive neutrinos in the pi --> e nu decay spectrum was sought with the background pi --> mu --> e decay chain highly suppressed. Upper limits (90% C.L.) on the neutrino mixing matrix element |U_ei|^2 in the neutrino mass region…
In this article, we study the two body gluino decays $\tilde{g} \rightarrow \tilde{u}_i \bar{u}_g$, $\tilde{g} \rightarrow \tilde{d}_i \bar{d}_g$ with $i=1,2,...6$ and $g=1,2,3$ in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) with quark…
A recently proposed scaling law for the decay time of alpha particles is generalized for cluster decay. It is shown that for the decay of even-even parents, $logT_{1/2}$ depends linearly on the scaling variable…
The half lives for various clusters lying in the cold reaction valleys of {210-226}^Ra isotopes are computed using our Coulomb and proximity potential model (CPPM). The computed half lives of 4^He and 14^C clusters from {210-226}^Ra…

We evaluate the allowed $\beta^-$-decay properties of nuclei with $Z = 8 - 15$ systematically under the framework of the nuclear shell model with the use of the valence space Hamiltonians derived from modern $ab~intio$ methods, such as…
In this work, the $\beta$-stable region for Z $\geq$ 90 is proposed. The calculated $\beta$-stable nuclei in the $\beta$-stable region are in good agreement with the ones obtained by M\"{o}ller \emph{et al}.. The half-lives of the nuclei…
We investigate the redshift evolution of the matter density parameter, $\Omega_m(z)$, using galaxy cluster gas mass fraction measurements combined with cosmic chronometer $H(z)$ data and type Ia supernova luminosity distances. Our approach…
We show that by adding a vector-like 5+5bar pair of matter fields to the spectrum of the minimal renormalizable SUSY SU(5) theory the wrong relations for fermion masses can be corrected, while being predictive and consistent with proton…
The nucleus 54Zn has been observed for the first time in an experiment at the SISSI/LISE3 facility of GANIL in the quasi-fragmentation of a 58Ni beam at 74.5 MeV/nucleon in a natNi target. The fragments were analysed by means of the…
Evaluated $2\beta^{-}(2\nu)$ half-lives and their systematics were reexamined in the framework of a phenomenological approach. Decay rate dependence on nuclear deformation, decay energy, shape coexistence, and forbidden transitions was…
$\beta$ decay of the $^{61}$Cr$_{37}$ ground state has been studied. A new half-life of 233 +/- 11 ms has been deduced, and seven delayed $\gamma$ rays have been assigned to the daughter, $^{61}$Mn$_{36}$. The low-energy level structure of…
Based on the recent data in NUBASE2012, an improved empirical formula for evaluating the $\alpha$-decay half-lives is presented, in which the hindrance effect resulted from the change of the ground state spins and parities of parent and…
The open quantum system eigenstate in the vicinity of low-energy decay channel may mimic its features, in particular the characteristic clustering properties of the decay channel. This generic mechanism of clusterization, the so-called…
