A very asymmetric two-center harmonic-oscillator shell model with different depths of the potential wells was developed in order to study the dynamical effects on the alpha decay widths. Only the one-dimensional (the z-component) problem was considered in detail, allowing the use of a numerical procedure for finding the solution of the Schrödinger equation. It is shown that such a model enhances the amplitudes of the single particle wave functions in the vicinity of the surface of the mother nucleus relative to the corresponding single-particle wave functions of the static one-center harmonic oscillator model. Thus, the intrinsic alpha decay overlap integrals may increase values of the amplitudes.
