“…In the same table we have TABLE I. Total reaction cross sections for 7 Be + 2 8Si obtained in the present experiment via an optical model analysis, σ elast , are compared with previous values deduced in an α-production experiment [38], σ α−production , as well as with a phenomenological prediction [54], σ pred , and theoretical values extracted from our CDCC calculations, σ CDCC . The first column gives the projectile incident energies at the front of the target, E lab , while the second column gives the reaction energy in the middle of the target, E rea .…”
