Phys. Rev. Lett. 50, 1184–1186 (1983)Is Proton Decay Measurable?Received 31 August 1982; published in the issue dated 18 April 1983 It is shown that nucleon collisions in a heavy nucleus may satisfy the conditions required for the inhibition of proton decay in the framework of the quantum mechanical theory of the decay of unstable systems. © 1983 The American Physical Society URL:
