Abstract
Exotic cluster decay of very heavy nuclei was studied in the microscopic Super-Asymmetric Fission Model. The Relativistic Mean Field model with the force FSU Gold was employed to obtain the densities of the cluster and the daughter nuclei. The microscopic nuclear interaction DDM3Y1, which has an exponential density dependence, and the Coulomb interaction were used in the double folding model to obtain the potential between the cluster and the daughter. Half-life values were calculated in the WKB approximation and the spectroscopic factors were extracted. The latter values are seen to have a simple dependence of the mass of the cluster as has been observed earlier. Predictions were made for some possible decays.
