Q(β-)=-1.70×103 keV 6S(n)= 6.61×103 keV 10S(p)= 3.26×103 keV 6Q(α)= 6.78×103 keV 5
Reference: 2012WA38

General Comments:

Calculated half-life, Q(α): 2011Sa40

Cluster decay: 22Ne clusters (2011Sh13)

Q-value: Note: Current evaluation has used the following Q record -1698 536610 100 3263 52 6778 50 2011AuZZ

Q-value: Q(α)=6778 20 if the observed 6660α feeds the g.s. of 226Pa. Q(α) systematics suggests that 6660α feeds a low-lying level or g.s. of 226Pa.

%ε+%β+≈97 is obtained if all of the observed 230U is assumed to be formed by ε decay of 230Np following its production in 233U(p,4n). Since 230U could also be produced by 233U(p,p3n), 97% branching for ε decay was given by 1968Ha14 as an upper limit.
