It modifies the original Woods Saxon （WS） potential with a shifted Gaussian factor centered at the nuclear surface. The free parameters in the WSG potential are determined by reproducing the correct level scheme of ^212Po=^208Pb＋α. It is found that the resulting WSG potential matches the NI3Y double-folding potential at tile surface region and makes corrections to the inner part of the cluster-core l）otential. It was also determined that the WSG potential, with nearly identical parameters to that of ^212Po （except for a rescale（l radius）, could also be used to describe alpha-cluster structures in ^20Ne=^16O＋α and ^44Ti = ^40Ca＋α. In all lhrec cases, the calculated values of the level schemes, electromagnetic transitions, and alpha-decay half-lives agree with the experimental data. which indicates that the WSG potential could indeed capture many important features of the alpha-cluster structures in alpha ＋ closed shell nuclei. This study is a useful complement to the existing cluster-core potentials ill literature. The Gaussian form factor centered at the nuclear surface might also help to improve our understailding of the alpha-cluster formation, which occurs in the same general region.展开更多

For a decays to the Z ? 82 isotopes, the α-decay half-life is found to decrease with the increasing neutron skin thickness, while the opposite behavior is found for a decays to the N ? 126 isotones. Therefore, it could be a possible way to extract the nuclear skin thickness from measured α-decay half-lives.展开更多

A total of 66 plant species were recorded at low-relief and high-relief wadis. Altitude and slope gradients, grain size distribution and soil texture properties had a significant relationship with plant cover and plant diversity. There was a high diversity of life-forms along the wadi system with a dominant of therophytes(annuals) particularly in spring after winter rainfalls. Chamaephytes and hemicryptophytes were the dominant perennial life-forms. A chorological analysis documents the strong effect of Saharo-Arabian chorotype on the vegetation of the study area. Cluster analysis clarified eight vegetation assemblages along altitude and slope gradients within the wadi system. Alpha diversity of plant species was greater in plant assemblages at low-relief wadis than at high-relief wadis. Vegetation structure in this study showed that phytogeographically, wadis of Jal Al-Zor were closely related to the wadis in the Arabian deserts. The slope gradient pattern and edaphic conditions of plant assemblages and plant diversity in the conserved wadis of Jal Al-Zor may be suggested as a reference model for restoration strategy of disturbed low elevated wadis in the surrounding desert regions.Restoration would include propagation of suitable plants such as Stipagrostis plumosa-Haloxylon salicornicum-Rhanterium epapposum.展开更多
