Abstract

The half-life and the [Formula: see text]-value of alpha decay in several super heavy elements are calculated. The nuclear potential is computed using the double-folding method. Using the S-matrix theory, the alpha decay is treated as a scattering problem between alpha particle and the daughter nucleus. Nuclear potential was approximated by the parameterized Woods–Saxon potential. This idea has also been extended to predict the half-life and the [Formula: see text]-value of the heaviest elements of few other alpha chains.
