Fig.6-4 Dominant decay mode of nuclei: α-decay, β-decay, spontaneous fission or proton emission

The nuclear decay mode with the shortest partial half-life among probable nuclear decays, the dominant decay mode, is shown for each nucleus. We consider four decay modes, namely, α-decay, β-decay, proton emission and spontaneous fission in this calculation. Only nuclides with half-lives of 1 nanosecond or longer are plotted.
