Laser manipulation of nuclear decay has extremely promising applications. In this study, cutting-edge Gaussian lasers were combined with the latest data on α to thoroughly investigate factors that impact penetration probability in laser-assisted nuclei, while considering deformation nucleus. Our calculations reveal using state-of-the-art laser fields can marginally alter half-life by affecting within a narrow range. Moreover, our findings demonstrate two key points: (1) By deriving an analytical formula for rate change ultra-intense field, we unveil negative correlation between energy and probability. (2) We attribute wavelength as determinant effect average probability, which explain reconstructing pulse width wavelength. This research offers rapid method estimate α-decay serves valuable reference future experimental investigations laser-nuclear interactions.
