Theoretical studies on structural and decay properties of superheavy nuclei
In this manuscript, we analyze the structural properties of
superheavy nuclei in the mass range of 284 A 375 within the
framework of deformed relativistic mean field theory (RMF) and calculate the
binding energy, radii, quadrupole deformation parameter, separation energies
and density profile. Further, a competition between possible decay modes such
as decay, decay and spontaneous fission (SF) of the isotopic
chain of superheavy nuclei under study is systematically analyzed
within self-consistent relativistic mean field model. Moreover, our analysis
confirmed that decay is restricted within the mass range 284 A
296 and thus being the dominant decay channel in this mass range.
However, for the mass range 297 A 375 the nuclei are unable to
survive fission and hence SF is the principal mode of decay for these isotopes.
There is no possibility of decay for the considered isotopic chain. In
addition, we forecasted the mode of decay 119 as one chain
from 119 and 119, two consistent chains from
119 and 119, three consistent chains from 119
and 119, four consistent alpha chains from 119, six consistent
alpha chains from 119. Also from our analysis we inferred that for
the isotopes Bh both decay and SF are equally
competent and can decay via either of these two modes. Thus, such studies can
be of great significance to the experimentalists in very near future for
synthesizing superheavy nuclei.Comment: 14 pages, 6 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Structural and decay properties of superheavy nuclei
In this paper, we analyze the structural properties of and
superheavy nuclei within the ambit of axially deformed relativistic mean-field
framework with NL parametrization and calculate the total binding
energies, radii, quadrupole deformation parameter, separation energies, density
distributions. We also investigate the phenomenon of shape coexistence by
performing the calculations for prolate, oblate and spherical configurations.
For clear presentation of nucleon distributions, the two-dimensional contour
representation of individual nucleon density and total matter density has been
made. Further, a competition between possible decay modes such as
-decay, -decay and spontaneous fission of the isotopic chain of
superheavy nuclei with within the range 312 A 392 and 318
A 398 for is systematically analyzed within self-consistent
relativistic mean field model. From our analysis, we inferred that the
-decay and spontaneous fission are the principal modes of decay in
majority of the isotopes of superheavy nuclei under investigation apart from
decay as dominant mode of decay in isotopes.Comment: 16 pages, 10 figures , 8 table
Breast Cancer Awareness among Females in a Developing world- A Study from Kashmir
Background: Breast cancer is a major health issue and in developing regions, where the early cancer detection facilities are unavailable awareness about this disease can lead to early detection and thereby potentially decrease the morbidity and mortality.Methods: A self designed questionnaire was used to study the level of awareness regarding breast cancer among 864 Kashmiri females. The questionnaire had 18 questions and on the basis on score attained, the subjects were classified as having poor, average or good breast cancer awareness.Results: Out of 864 participants, 703(81.37%) had poor breast cancer awareness and 103(11.92%) had average awareness. Only 58(6.71%) had good awareness about breast cancer.Conclusion: The level of awareness regarding breast cancer in Kashmiri females is very low and there is a need to spread awareness about this disease among the general population
