The simultaneous emission of two $\alpha$ particles--double-$\alpha$ decay--represents a long-predicted but unobserved mode of nuclear radioactivity. Here we formulate this process as a genuine three-body problem within the hyperspherical…

Atomic nuclei are quantum many-body systems of protons and neutrons held together by strong nuclear forces. Under the proper conditions, nuclei can break into two (sometimes three) fragments which will subsequently decay by emitting…
A weak dependence of the angular momentum of $^{144}$Ba fragments, produced in the spontaneous fission of $^{252}$Cf, on the total kinetic energy (TKE) was recently observed \cite{Giha2025}. To investigate this phenomenon, we propose a…
The modern theory of neutrinoless double beta decay includes a scaling factor that has often been treated inconsistently in the literature. The nuclear contribution to the decay half life can be suppressed by 15-20% when scaling factors are…

$\alpha$ decay is an important probe for studying the structure of heavy and superheavy nuclei, in which the $\alpha$-particle preformation ($P_{\alpha}$) is a key physical quantity for describing decay half-lives. This work develops a…
During the fission process, the nucleus deforms and elongates up to the two fragments inception and their final separation at scission deformation. The evolution of the nucleus energy with deformation is determined by the macroscopic…
We investigate the ternary fissions of $^{252}$Cf (spontaneous) and $^{236}$U (neutron-induced) into medium-mass fragments, as reported by the Dubna group, using the Hartree-Fock plus BCS method with the SLy6 Skyrme interaction. Compared to…
The alpha decay half-lives of recently synthesized superheavy nuclei (SHN) are calculated by applying a new approach which estimates them with the help of their neighbors based on some simple formulas. The estimated half-life values are in…
Presently, it is well established that fission of excited nuclei is a dynamical process being a subject of fluctuations and dissipation. In the literature, there are indications that, at the compact nucleus shapes, the strength of nuclear…
This article reviews how nuclear fission is described within nuclear density functional theory. In spontaneous fission, half-lives are the main observables and quantum tunnelling the essential concept, while in induced fission the focus is…
We present a microscopic model for the calculation of alpha-decay half lives employing potentials obtained from relativistic and non-relativistic self-consistent mean-field models. The nuclear and Coulomb potentials are used to obtain the…
