Studies on the modes of decay of normal and hypernuclei

The last few decades have witnessed an extensive development in theoretical as well as experimental aspects of nuclear physics. High precision data are available with the advent of new experimental techniques. As the experimental techniques achieved greater perfection various theoretical analysis are also coming in supporting the experimental studies. The present work is a humble attempt to account for the decay modes of normal and hypernuclei. Among normal nuclei, the main focus is on the superheavy nuclei which have become an important part of the modern nuclear physics. The main tool to investigate such unstable nuclei is to observe their radioactive decay modes
