Spontaneous heavy cluster emission rates using microscopic potentials
  The nuclear cluster radioactivities have been studied theoretically in the framework of a microscopic superasymmetric fission model (MSAFM). The nuclear interaction potentials required for binary cold fission processes are calculated by folding in the density distribution functions of the two fragments with a realistic effective interaction. The microscopic nuclear potential thus obtained has been used to calculate the action integral within the WKB approximation. The calculated half lives of the present MSAFM calculations are found to be in good agreement over a wide range of observed experimental data.
