Abstract
We study the half-lives of some nuclei via the alpha-decay process in ground-state to ground-state ( g.s. → g.s. ) transitions. To go through the problem, we consider the parabola and WKB approximations to fin the penetration probability. This new formula is used to evaluate alpha-decay half-lives and a good agreement with the experiment is obtained.
