Astrophysical β-decay formulas and superheavy elements

Creators

Description

We comment on currently used β-decay formulas in astrophysical and superheavy-element applications. A new formula of comparable simplicity but significantly improved accuracy is presented which predicts β-decay rates that increase more strongly with energy than do conventional extrapolations in the neutron-rich superheavy-element region.
