Cluster formation probability in the trans-tin and trans-lead nuclei

Within our fission model, the Coulomb and proximity potential model (CPPM) cluster formation probabilities are calculated for different clusters ranging from carbon to silicon for the parents in the trans-tin and trans-lead regions. It is found that in trans-tin region the 12C, 16O, 20Ne and 24Mg clusters have maximum cluster formation probability and lowest half lives as compared to other clusters. In trans-lead region the 14C, 18,20O, 23F, 24,26Ne, 28,30Mg and 34Si clusters have the maximum cluster formation probability and minimum half life, which show that alpha like clusters are most probable for emission from trans-tin region while non-alpha clusters are probable from trans-lead region. These results stress the role of neutron proton symmetry and asymmetry of daughter nuclei in these two cases.
