Proton emission from the drip-line nuclei I-Bi using the WKB approximation with relativistic mean-field densities

crucial application to the existence of exotic nuclei. The effective relativistic meanfield formalism(E-RMF), with NL3, FSUGarnet, G3 and IOPB-I interactions, is adopted for analysis of the ground state properties of proton emitters. Furthermore, in the E-RMF background, the Wentzel-Karmers-Brillouin(WKB)barrier penetration method is used for the calculation of proton emission half-lives. It is found that the calculated halflives are in good agreement with the experimental results for all emitters considered in this study.
