¹⁶Ne has not been observed. The isobaric multiplet mass equation predicts M - A = 25.15 ± 0.6 MeV (1968CE01: ¹⁶Ne is then unbound with respect to breakup into ¹⁴O + 2p by 2.6 MeV. See also (1960GO1B, 1960GO1D, 1961BA1C, 1961GO1D, 1962GO28, 1962GO31, 1964GA1C, 1965JA1C, 1966KE16). A search has been made for the two-proton decay of ¹⁶Ne in the bombardment of nickel by 150 MeV ²⁰Ne ions: the cross section is either ≤ 1.8 μb (if E_pp > 1 MeV and τ(¹⁶Ne) ≥ 10^-8 sec), or else τ(¹⁶Ne) < 10^-8 sec (1964KA28). See also (1965GO1D, 1966GO1B, 1966LE1H, 1970WA1G).
