Using the phenomenological optical potential and two different semi-microscopic potentials, namely double folding and cluster folding (CF), the available experimental data for 6Li elastically scattered from [Formula: see text]C nucleus at energies 50–600[Formula: see text]MeV are reanalyzed. On the basis of the well-known cluster structure of 6Li as a composite nucleus consisting of a core “alpha” with a valence particle “deuteron” orbiting this core, special attention was paid to the CF potential. Elastic scattering data for 6Li+[Formula: see text]C system plotted as a function of momentum transfer showed that the real Coulomb nuclear interference region is independent of the bombarding energy. The aforementioned structural behavior for the data could be used to define the potential with some certainty. In addition to a Woods–Saxon imaginary potential of fixed radius, the real part of the potential derived from the cluster structure of 6Li was successful in reproducing the experimental data in the whole angular range. Coupled channel (CC) calculation effects are also performed by coupling to 6Li resonant state ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]MeV).
The α-target semimicroscopic single folding potentials have been derived by folding a composite (repulsive and attractive) effective α-α interaction with the α-cluster distribution density in the target nuclei. The obtained potentials are considered as the real part of the nuclear optical model potentials, while the imaginary parts are phenomenologicaly expressed using the Woods—Saxon form. Nine sets of measured experimental data of the 4He+12C and 4He+16O elastic rainbow scattering over the energy range 80–240 MeV are analyzed using the obtained potentials. The data are successfully reproduced using the extracted potentials. The resulted reaction cross sections are also investigated and compared with the available corresponding data.
Elastic scattering of the two-neutron halo nucleus, 6 He, on 12 C target at 38.3 and 41.6 MeV/nucleon has been analyzed in the framework of the double-folding optical model. Real double-folded potentials based on the realistic density-dependent DDM3Y and JLM effective nucleon-nucleon interactions are generated using different forms of the nuclear matter density distribution of 6 He. The imaginary optical potentials are taken in the conventional Woods-Saxon form. The bare (unnormalized) real folded potentials derived from the JLM interaction are more successful in reproducing the data at both energies than those derived from the DDM3Y interaction. The effect of contribution of the dynamic polarization potential is also studied. A semimicroscopic approximation is proposed to simulate this potential by introducing a repulsive real part extracted from the generated folded potential. Fits to data have been slightly improved by considering this approximation.
The optical potential of halo and weakly bound nuclei has a long range part
due to the coupling to breakup that damps the elastic scattering angular
distributions. In order to describe correctly the breakup channel in the case
of scattering on a heavy target, core recoil effects have to be taken into
account. We show here that core recoil and nuclear breakup of the valence
nucleon can be consistently taken into account. A microscopic absorptive
potential is obtained within a semiclassical approach and its characteristics
can be understood in terms of the properties of the halo wave function and of
the reaction mechanism. Results for the case of medium to high energy reactions
are presented.Comment: 25 latex pages, 4 tables, 6 figures. Submitted to Nucl. Phys.
The elastic scattering of 6,7Li+28Si reactions has been analyzed in the framework of the double folding optical model. Semi-microscopic folded potentials are generated based on the alpha (α)-cluster structure of the colliding nuclei. Successful reproduction of the observed angular distributions of the elastic scattering differential cross section and reaction cross sections has been obtained at different energies using the derived potentials. A microscopic folding approach based on the effective DDM3Y nucleon–nucleon interaction and the nuclear matter densities of the interacting nuclei is also considered.
