Abstract

The exotic nuclear decay of ²³⁰U by emission of heavy ions has been investigated by use of ²³⁰Pa ^β-→ ²³⁰U sources and polyester track detectors. After a run of 248 d, two cases of decay via heavy ion emission, which were most probably for the neon decays of ²³⁰U, were observed for the first time. The preliminary branching ratio for the emission of heavy ions relative to α particles from ²³⁰U comes out to be (1.3±0.8)×10^-14.
