Abstract
Long-Range Alpha (LRA) emission probability is studied using a one dimensio nal sudden approximation model. The probability of the energy transfer betw een the scissioning nucleus and the LRA particle as well as the LRA angular distribution are discussed for several elongations and for several mass sp lits at scission. Finally, it is shown that a comparison between the calcul ated LRA emission probability and the corresponding experimental data allow s a determination of the Q(alpha)-value at the scission point.
