The double-folding nuclear potential of 236U for two orientations, beta = 0◦ and beta = 90◦
The corresponding multipole components are
The polar-angle dependent penetration probability of alpha decay is given by
In the DDCM, the alpha-decay width has the following expression
3. DDCM for alpha decay: agreement is within a factor of three for half-lives although experimental
half-lives vary from 10-6 s to 1019 year
In the multipole expansion, the density distribution of daughter nucleus is expanded as
The corresponding intrinsic form factor has the form
The double-folding potential can then be evaluated by a sum of different multipole components
