A recent high-resolution $alpha$, $X$-ray, and $gamma$-ray coincidence-spectroscopy experiment offered first glimpse of excitation schemes of isotopes along $alpha$-decay chains of $Z=115$. To understand these observations and to make predictions about shell structure of superheavy nuclei below $^{288}115$, we employ two complementary mean-field models: self-consistent Skyrme Energy Density Functional approach and the macroscopic-microscopic Nilsson model. We discuss the spectroscopic information carried by the new data. In particular, candidates for the experimentally observed $E1$ transitions in $^{276}$Mt are proposed. We find that the presence and nature of low-energy $E1$ transitions in well-deformed nuclei around $Z=110, N=168$ strongly depends on the strength of the spin-orbit coupling; hence, it provides an excellent constraint on theoretical models of superheavy nuclei. To clarify competing theoretical scenarios, an experimental search for $E1$ transitions in odd-$A$ systems $^{275,277}$Mt, $^{275}$Hs, and $^{277}$Ds is strongly recommended.

A fully systematic study of even and odd isotopes (281 $leq$ A $leq$ 380) of Z = 121 superheavy nuclei is presented in theoretical frameworks of Relativistic mean-field plus state dependent BCS approach and Macroscopic-Microscopic approach with triax ially deformed Nilson Strutinsky prescription. The ground state properties namely shell correction, binding energy, two- and one- proton and neutron separation energy, shape, deformation, density profile and the radius are estimated that show strong evidence for magicity in N = 164, 228. Central depletion in the charge density due to large repulsive Coulomb field indicating bubble-like structure is reported. A comprehensive analysis of the possible decay modes specifically $alpha$-decay and spontaneous fission (SF) is presented and the probable $alpha$-decay chains are evaluated. Results are compared with FRDM calculations and the available experimental data which show excellent agreement.
In this paper, we analyze the structural properties of $Z=132$ and $Z=138$ superheavy nuclei within the ambit of axially deformed relativistic mean-field framework with NL$3^{*}$ parametrization and calculate the total binding energies, radii, quadru pole deformation parameter, separation energies, density distributions. We also investigate the phenomenon of shape coexistence by performing the calculations for prolate, oblate and spherical configurations. For clear presentation of nucleon distributions, the two-dimensional contour representation of individual nucleon density and total matter density has been made. Further, a competition between possible decay modes such as $alpha$-decay, $beta$-decay and spontaneous fission of the isotopic chain of superheavy nuclei with $Z=132$ within the range 312 $le$ A $le$ 392 and 318 $le$ A $le$ 398 for $Z=138$ is systematically analyzed within self-consistent relativistic mean field model. From our analysis, we inferred that the $alpha$-decay and spontaneous fission are the principal modes of decay in majority of the isotopes of superheavy nuclei under investigation apart from $beta$ decay as dominant mode of decay in $^{318-322}138$ isotopes.
Alpha-decay energies for several chains of super-heavy nuclei are calculated within the self-consistent mean-field approach by using the Fayans functional FaNDF$^0$. They are compared to the experimental data and predictions of two Skyrme functionals , SLy4 and SkM*, and of the macro-micro method as well. The corresponding lifetimes are calculated with the use of the semi-phenomenological formulas by Parkhomenko and Sobiczewski and by Royer and Zhang.

Spontaneous fission and alpha decay are the main decay modes for superheavy nuclei. The superheavy nuclei which have small alpha decay half-life compared to spontaneous fission half-life will survive fission and can be detected in the laboratory thro ugh alpha decay. We have studied the alpha decay half-life and spontaneous half-life of some superheavy elements in the atomic range Z = 100-130. Spontaneous fission half-lives of superheavy nuclei have been calculated using the phenomenological formula and the alpha decay half-lives using Viola-Seaborg-Sobiczewski formula (Sobiczewski et al. 1989), semi empirical relation of Brown (1992) and formula based on generalized liquid drop model proposed by Dasgupta-Schubert and Reyes (2007). The results are reported here.
In this manuscript, we analyze the structural properties of $Z=119$ superheavy nuclei in the mass range of 284 $le$ A $le$ 375 within the framework of deformed relativistic mean field theory (RMF) and calculate the binding energy, radii, quadrupole d eformation parameter, separation energies and density profile. Further, a competition between possible decay modes such as $alpha-$decay, $beta-$decay and spontaneous fission (SF) of the isotopic chain of $Z=119$ superheavy nuclei under study is systematically analyzed within self-consistent relativistic mean field model. Moreover, our analysis confirmed that $alpha-$decay is restricted within the mass range 284 $leq$ A $leq$ 296 and thus being the dominant decay channel in this mass range. However, for the mass range 297 $leq$ A $leq$ 375 the nuclei are unable to survive fission and hence SF is the principal mode of decay for these isotopes. There is no possibility of $beta-$decay for the considered isotopic chain. In addition, we forecasted the mode of decay $^{284-296}$119 as one $alpha$ chain from $^{284}$119 and $^{296}$119, two consistent $alpha$ chains from $^{285}$119 and $^{295}$119, three consistent $alpha$ chains from $^{286}$119 and $^{294}$119, four consistent alpha chains from $^{287}$119, six consistent alpha chains from $^{288-293}$119. Also from our analysis we inferred that for the isotopes $^{264-266,269}$Bh both $alpha$ decay and SF are equally competent and can decay via either of these two modes. Thus, such studies can be of great significance to the experimentalists in very near future for synthesizing $Z=119$ superheavy nuclei.
