Neutron Numbers 98, 108 and 116

IN a discussion of neutron capture processes and theories of element origin, Malkiél 1 has suggested that the neutron numbers 98, 108 and 116 may be favoured. Malkiél mentions that mass data also appear to support the “special character” of N = 116. It may be recalled that these numbers are not pred...

Zusammenfassung:IN a discussion of neutron capture processes and theories of element origin, Malkiél 1 has suggested that the neutron numbers 98, 108 and 116 may be favoured. Malkiél mentions that mass data also appear to support the “special character” of N = 116. It may be recalled that these numbers are not predicted as significant by the shell model of the nucleus.
