The stability and/or instability of the deformed and superdeformed nuclei, $^{133-137}_{60}$Nd, $^{144-158}_{64}$Gd, $^{176-194}_{80}$Hg, and $^{192-198}_{82}$Pb parents, coming from three regions of different superdeformations, are studied…

Alpha particles emitted from an excited projectile-like fragment (PLF*) formed in a peripheral collision of two intermediate-energy heavy ions exhibit a strong preference for emission towards the target-like fragment (TLF). The interplay of…

In this work, a microscopic effective nucleon-nucleon interaction based on the Dirac-Brueckner-Hartree-Fock $G$ matrix starting from a bare nucleon-nucleon interaction is used to explore the $\alpha$-decay half-lives of the nuclei near…
