Analogies to hydrodynamics led recently to the derivation of a nonlinear Schrodinger equation for the elastic scattering of heavy ions (Delion et al. 1978). In the present paper, the numerical solution of this equation is shown to yield realistic values for the nuclear compressibility modulus K = 9C, with very small uncertainties.
A new economical numerical method is presented for the correct zero-range evaluation of differential cross sections and angular correlation functions for a-transfer reactions into high-lying unbound (resonant) a-cluster states. The results for the 5& (15.6 MeV) and 6& (16.3 MeV) states in ' 0 occupied in the reaction ' C( Li,d ) ' O*(a ) ' C support the suggested approach.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
