A study of α-decay for 192,194Po and 188,190Pb was performed in the reaction of 36Ar on 160Dy at 176 MeV, The formation cross section was obtained to be 5.0±0.2 µb for 192Po and 11.6±0.3μb for 194Po. The resulting reduced α width δ2 was 38(5) keV for 188Pb and 25(3) keV for 190Pb, which further confirmed the magic characteristics for neutron-deficient nuclei of Z=82.
