| Abstract: | Recent studies of nuclear mass models show that it is essential to account for the Coulomb redistribution energy when calculating the nuclear potential energy in the heavy-element region. Results obtained by use of a mass model that includes Coulomb redistribution effects on analyzed. Q values of α and β decay are calculated. Half-lives for α decay are estimated by use of the Viola-Seaborg systematics. For EC, β⁺ decay and β{sup −} decay, half-lives are calculated in a microscopic QRPA model. Calculated single-particle level structures in the heavy-element regions are presented. These indicate possible regions of isomers that would be unusually stable with respect to spontaneous fission and α decay. Finally, we discuss the implications of earlier extensive work on fission properties of nuclei in this region. |
