Abstract

The reaction-theoretical formulation of α decay theory is extended to deformed nuclei in a particle-plus-rotor model and adapted for the use of harmonic oscillator functions. For testing purposes the formalism is applied to the decay of nuclides with reasonably well-established ground state shapes (spherical as well as deformed). The agreement is quite satisfactory considering the inadequacy of the oscillator functions in the asymptotic region.
