What is the probability of alpha-particles with kinetic energy? 5j MeV tunnelling through the potential barrier of a polonium nucleus? |
|
Answer» `w=e^(-a),"where "a=(2R)/hsqrt(2m(U_(0)-K))` Here `U_(0)` is the height of the Coulomb barrier, and K is the kinetic energy of the alpha-particle. For data on the radius of the polonium NUCLEUS and on the barrier height. |
