Abstract

It is important to study the different decay modes of superheavy nuclei such as spontaneous fission, ternary fission and cluster decay. We studied the spontaneous fission, ternary fission and cluster decay of predicted isotopes of superheavy nuclei [Formula: see text] and compared with that of alpha decay. This enables us to study the competition between spontaneous fission, ternary fission, cluster decay and alpha decay in the superheavy nuclei [Formula: see text]. We have studied the half-lives and decay constants of different decay modes. We have also studied the branching ratio of alpha decay with respect to other decay modes. This study reveals that alpha decay is the most dominant decay mode for the superheavy nuclei [Formula: see text] and hence these nuclei can be detected through the alpha decay mode only.
