An Effective Method to Accurately Calculate the Phase Space Factors for Decay

Table 4

The calculated PSF () expressed in yr−1 for the decay to ground state of the 11 nuclei listed in Table 1. The last line shows the optimal “screening factor” for all 8 -PSF (). For , the -PSF optimal “screening factor”, of Table 1, was used. Shown in the last column are the maximum deviations between our calculations with the indicated parameters and the results from [14].
