Recent Advances in Theoretical Studies of 2p Radioactivity: Nuclear Many-body Structure in Three-body Model

• Nowadays quantum-mechanical three-cluster theory allows one to reliably calculate the processes of 2p radioactivity (true three-body decays) and the corresponding energy and angular correlations. However, the connection of the three-cluster final state configuration with possibly many-body internal structure of the nucleus is unclear in this approach. A simple method for taking into account the many-body structure in the three-body decay calculations was developed. The results of the relativistic mean field (RMF) calculations are used as an input for the three-cluster decay model. The calculations for the prospective two-proton emitter S-26 are provided.
