The magnetic field effect on 54 Mn is discussed. The results show that a weak magnetic field makes little effect on β^+ decay but a strong magnetic field (B 〉 10^11 G) improves β^+ decay rates obviously. The conclusion derived will benefit to develop further research on nuclear astrophysics in the future.展开更多

文摘Based on shell model of nuclei, the influence of a high magnetic field on β^+ decay in the crusts of accreting neutron stars is analyzed. The magnetic field effect on 54 Mn is discussed. The results show that a weak magnetic field makes little effect on β^+ decay but a strong magnetic field (B 〉 10^11 G) improves β^+ decay rates obviously. The conclusion derived will benefit to develop further research on nuclear astrophysics in the future.
