Abstract: | The α decay of the anomalously low-lying isomeric level 3/2+ (3.5±1.0 eV) of the 229Th nucleus is studied. The lifetime of the isomer with respect to a decay is predicted and the spectrum of the emitted a particles is calculated. It is noted that the complete α spectrum of the isomer and accelerated α decay of 229Th can be observed by exciting the nuclei with laser radiation. Pis’ma Zh. éksp. Teor.
