Since an ..cap alpha.. particle has no spin and its isospin is equal to zero, the study of ..cap alpha..-..cap alpha.. elastic scattering at high energies may play an important role in the research of nucleus-nucleus collision. In this paper, on the basis of two different approximations (the rigid projectile approximation and the optical limit approximation), the amplitudes for high energy ..cap alpha..-..cap alpha.. elastic scattering are given; their explicit feature is to make numerical calculation easy. In detailed calculation, the modified mass center correction is adopted for the optical limit case. The calculated results for both approximations agree with experiment as good as the exact one.
