Abstract

We have made an attempt to parameterize decay energies (Q) during the cluster emissions such as 4He, 6Li, 9Be,20,22Ne, 23Na, 24−26 Mg, 27Al, 28−30Si, 32−34S, 35Cl, 36,38,40Ar, 39,41 K and 40,42–44,46Ca from the superheavy nuclei 103 < Z < 126. We have formulated an empirical formula for decay energies of superheavy nuclei during the emission of different clusters of nuclei. To check the predictive power of constructed formula, we have compared the decay energies produced by the present formula with that of the experiments. The constructed empirical formula can reproduce the Q-values during the cluster emissions using simple inputs of mass number of daughter nuclei, atomic number of cluster emission and neutron number of parent nuclei.
