Systematic study of α decay for isomer related nuclei within a two-potential approach

$\alpha$ decay occurs in both ground states and isomers of nuclei. In this work, we use the two-potential approach to systematically study whether isomeric states play a key role on $\alpha$ particle clustering or not. The results indicate the ratios of $\alpha$ decay preformation probabilities of isomers to ground states are found to be around 1.
