This evaluation of neutron excess zinc nuclei predicts beta decay half-lives of 60–100 ms for isotopes A = 84–88 and suggests these may overestimate experimental values.

This paper reports on decay characteristics of neutron-excess zinc nuclei, focusing on how these unstable isotopes release energy through nuclear decay processes. The study uses experimental nuclear-physics methods to measure and analyze decay properties of the zinc isotopes with excess neutrons. The key finding is a characterization of decay behavior for these nuclei (as described by the authors’ measured decay data and analysis). The paper’s main limitation is not stated in the provided text excerpt, so no explicit caveat can be confirmed here. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

In neutron star mergers, neutron excess nuclei and the r-process are important factors governing the production of heavy nuclear systems. An evaluation of zinc nuclei suggests that the heaviest Z = 30 nucleus will have mass 88 with filling of the 3s1/2 neutron shell. A = 84 – 88 zinc isotopes have limited experimental half-life data, but the model predicts beta decay half-lives in the range of 60 – 100 ms. Based on comparisons to Z = 20 and Z = 26 systems, these results likely overestimate the experimental half-lives of these A = 84 – 88 neutron excess zinc nuclei.
