Abstract
Nuclear radii for mass numbers between A = 140 and 252 have been computed from 121 alpha decays between ground states of even-even nuclei. We use for that the two-body solution for the square well potential that we gave recently. The computed radii obey the A1/3 law and they are consistent with the precise radii obtained from electron scattering. These two sets of radii show structures which are correlatedKeywords
