Predictions on the alpha decay chains of superheavy nuclei with Z =121 within the range 290 ≤\leq A ≤\leq 339

Abstract: A systematic study on the alpha decay half lives of various isotopes of superheavy element \textit{Z} = 121 within the range 290 ≤\leq A ≤\leq 339 is presented for the first time using Coulomb and proximity potential model for deformed nuclei (CPPMDN). The calculated α\alpha decay half lives of the isotopes within our formalism match well with the values computed using Viola-Seaborg systematic, Universal curve of Poenaru et al., and the analytical formula of Royer. In our study by comparing the α\alpha decay half lives with the spontaneous fission half lives, we have predicted 2α2\alpha chain from <sup>309,</sup>311,312<sup>{309,</sup> 311, 312}121, 3α3\alpha chain from <sup>310<sup>{310}121 and 1α1\alpha chain from <sup>313,</sup>314<sup>{313,</sup> 314}121. Clearly our study shows that the isotopes of superheavy element \textit{Z} = 121 within the mass range 309 ≤\leq A ≤\leq 314 will survive fission and can be synthesized and detected in the laboratory via alpha decay. We hope that our predictions will provide a new guide to future experiments.
