neutron-deficient alpha emitters are known to be of great relevance to the astrophysical rapid neutron capture process in superheavy nuclei. Therefore, in the present work, the decay properties of newly observed superheavy nuclei with Z = 102, i.e., No-249 isotope from the alpha-decay of (253)Rf is theoretically inves tigated using the relativistic mean field (RMF) framework and the NL3* parameter set within the preformed cluster-decay model (PCM). The alpha-decay chain of (255)Rf is also considered. The RMF densities are folded with the R3Y nucleon-nucleon (NN) potential to deduce the nuclear interaction potential between the decaying fragments. A complete understanding of the penetration of an alpha-particle across the nuclear Coulomb barrier gives outstanding credence to the assumptions of quantum mechanics. The presence of shell/sub-shell closure is indicated by the formation of peaks along the decay chain and was found to alter the conventional scaling factor observed earlier in the results of the PCM. The calculated half-lives are in close agreement with recent experimental measurements. (AU) | |
