| Research Abstract |
Total half-lives of nuclei in the whole nuclear mass region are obtained from four nuclear decay modes : alpha-decay, beta-decay, proton emission and spontaneous fission, which are estimated from theoretical nuclear ground-state masses of a global nuclear mass model, the KTUY (Koura-Tachibana-Uno-Yamada) mass formula. Number of nuclei with total half-lives of 1 nanosecond or longer is estimated to be approximately eleven thousands, that with half-lives of 1 second or longer is approximately four thousand, and so on. A area of existence of nuclei is also estimated to extend up to 170-180 of proton number and 330 of neutron number. We confirm a finiteness of the area of nuclei with certain lives in the chart of the nuclides.
