Abstract

Starting from the formalism for alpha decay presented by Jackson and Rhoades-Brown /4/ and adapted for the decay of deformed nuclei by Berggren and Olanders /3/, we calculate half-lives and anisotropies in the alpha decay of oriented odd-mass At isotopes. The earlier results for harmonic oscillator models are compared to results for a Woods-Saxon model.
