Proton radioactivity at non-collective prolate shape in high spin state of 94Ag

AbstractWe predict proton radioactivity and structural transitions in high spin state of an excited exotic nucleus near proton drip line in a theoretical framework and investigate the nature and the consequences of the structural transitions on separation energy as a function of temperature and spin. It reveals that the rotation of the excited exotic nucleus 94Ag at excitation energies around 6.7 MeV and angular momentum near 21ℏ generates a rarely seen prolate non-collective shape and proton separation energy becomes negative which indicates proton radioactivity in agreement with the experimental results of Mukha et al. for 94Ag
