Study of the universal function of nuclear proximity potential between α and nuclei from density-dependent nucleon-nucleon interaction

Abstract

The universal function of proximity potential between α and nuclei is systematically studied from the double-folding model with the density-dependent nucleon-nucleon interaction (CDM3Y6) by analyzing different target nuclei with Z = 48–92. The analytical formula of universal function is obtained at s0 > −1 by fitting all of the calculated values. Using this formula we calculate the half-lives of α decay for heavy nuclei in comparison with the values of the experimental data. It is shown that the half-lives of the α decay calculated from the presently obtained universal function in proximity potential can keep within a factor of 3 with the experimental data.
