Abstract: | The emission of Ne and Mg nuclei was detected in the spontaneous decay of234U with probabilities of, respectively, (3.9 ±1.0) × 10?13 and (2.3 ±0.7) × 10?13 relative toα-decay. The upper limits of this kind of decay for235U and236U have been established. Systematics of half-lives for cluster emission are found to be similar to the Geiger-Nuttall dependence forα-decay. Some evidence for the presence of hindrance to cluster emission from the odd-mass nuclei233U and235U is obtained. |
