Abstract
The decay of by emission of delayed charged particles was investigated in an experiment at the Cyclotron Institute of Texas A&M University by means of an optical-readout time-projection chamber. The previously-known decay of the two isotopes by -delayed one- and two-proton emission was confirmed. For the first time, a new, rare, decay mode for , -delayed three-proton emission, was observed and -delayed proton- emission tentatively identified. Moreover, the -decay pattern for the ground state of was studied by means of multireference density-functional-rooted calculations.
