Abstract:In the unknown territory of transfermium nuclei, the relativistic mean-field (RMF) theory has been applied to probe decay modes which include α-decay, spontaneous fission (SF), and a less explored weak-decay. These decay modes are analyzed on equal footing for 101≤Z≤109 and as a consequence, the half-lives for weak-decay are indeed found comparable for several isotopes. Our prediction of decay modes and half-lives are found in excellent agreement with available experimental decay modes and half-lives along wit… Show more
