Abstract
A cluster model employing a local, effective cluster-core potential is used to investigate exotic decay from heavy nuclei as a quantum tunneling phenomenon within a semiclassical approximation. Excellent agreement with all reported experimental measurements of the decay widths for and emission is obtained. As an added bonus, the width for alpha particle emission from is also calculated in good agreement with experiment.
