Several quantities of interest in this process like the decay rate $λ$, the period of oscillation $T_{osc}$, the transient time $t_{tr}$, the tunneling time $t_{tun}$ and the average value of the proton packet position $ r_{av} $ are computed and compared with the WKB results.12 pages, 4 figuresNuclear Theorytext
