16. Nuclear Force Rate of decay or interaction R  (E).
Coupling constant . Vertices in the diagrams.
For decays R  1/T. (T  Lifetime).
The density of states  is a measure of the number of quantum mechanical states per unit energy range that are available for the final products. The more states that are available, the higher the transition rate.
The coupling constant  can be interpreted as an intrinsic rate.
