{\alpha}-decay half-lives for Pb isotopes within Gamow-like model

TL;DR

This paper investigates alpha decay half-lives of lead isotopes using a Gamow-like model and compares results with empirical formulas and experimental data, achieving good agreement.

Contribution

It introduces the application of a Gamow-like model to Pb isotopes and compares its predictions with multiple empirical formulas and experimental data.

Findings

Good agreement between model predictions and experimental data.

The Gamow-like model effectively estimates alpha decay half-lives.

Empirical formulas also show consistent results with observed data.

Abstract

We studed alpha decay half-lives of Pb isotopes in the range 178 < A > 220, whithin Gamow-like model (GLM) which is based on Gamow theory. The empirical formulae like Royer formula, Universal Decay Low (UDL), Viola-Seaborg formula (VSS), Semi-empirical formula for Poenaru (SemFIS) and Denisov-Khudenko formula (DEKH) are used to calculate alpha decay half-lives. The results are compared with experimental data, and also with other theoretical models, the results are in a good agreement was achieved with experimental data.
