Exotic decay investigation of Nd isotopes

Exotic decay of axially symmetric even-even and odd-even Nd isotopes is investigated within the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory. Calculations have been performed to determine the released energy for several clusters. The obtained energy is then used to calculate the cluster decay half-lives within the Unified Fission Model based on a modified Woods-Saxon potential. The results are compared with the available experimental data and those computed in the framework of the relativistic mean-field model.
