Abstract
An attempt of changing the radioactive decay rate of atomic nuclei due to interference of wave functions of the initial nucleus and nuclei identical to radioactive decay products has been made. The first experiments have been performed with 212Po undergoing α decay with a half-life of 0.3 μs. For 212Po implanted into natural metallic lead, the increase in the decay rate by ∼0.2%, as compared to the decay rate of 212Po in nickel, has been registered.
