Abstract
An attempt has been made to modify the original proximity potential using up-to-date knowledge of the universal function and surface energy coefficient available in the literature. A new radius formula has also been obtained using the recent data on charge distribution. The detailed investigation of over 395 reactions reveal that the new proximity potential reproduces the experimental data better than earlier versions.
