Abstract

The feasibility of alpha and cluster decay from Pt isotopes has been investigated within the framework of Skyrme Hartree–Fock–Bogoliubov (HFB) theory. Calculations have been carried out for various Skyrme forces. Harmonic oscillator and transformed harmonic oscillator basis are used to solve HFB equations. The role played by shell closure is analyzed. Half-lives are estimated with the help of Universal Decay Law (UDL). Geiger–Nuttal plots are also drawn and their linear nature is successfully reproduced.
