Theoretical calculations and evaluations of n+^(23)Na reaction

The data for neutron-induced reactions are indispensable in a lot of applications of nuclear science and technologies. All reaction cross sections, angular distributions, energy spectra, and double-differential cross sections of neutron, proton, deuteron, triton, and alpha-particle emissions are consistently calculated and analyzed for n+^(23)Na reactions at incident neutron energies below200 Me V, based on nuclear theoretical models. The calculated results are compared with the experimental data and the evaluated data in the ENDF/B-VII, JENDL-4.0,and JEFF-3.2 libraries. In most cases, the calculated results describe the corresponding experimental data well. At the resonance energy region, evaluated experimental data are adopted to fit to the resonance structures.

Applicability of 9Be global optical potential to reactions of 7,10,11,12Be

Elastic scattering angular distributions and total reaction cross-sections of 7,10,11,12Be projectiles are predicted by the systematic 9Be global phenomenological optical model potential for target mass numbers ranging from 24 to 209.These predictions provide a detailed analysis by their comparison with the available experimental data.Furthermore,these elastic scattering observables are also predicted for some targets out of the mass number range.The results are in reasonable agreement with the existing experimental data,and they are presented in this study.

Description of elastic scattering induced by the unstable nuclei^(9,10,11,13,14)C

The elastic-scattering angular distributions and total reaction cross sections of ^(9,10,11,13,14)C projectiles were predicted using the obtained ^(12)C and ^(9)Be global optical model potentials,respectively.The predictions were analyzed in detail by comparison with the available experimental data.The results indicate that the ^(12)C and ^(9)Be global optical model potentials provide a satisfactory description of the elastic scattering data for the reactions induced by the ^(9,10,11,13)C.For the neutron-rich carbon isotope ^(14)C,the elastic scattering can be well described by changing the real part radius parameter of the ^(12)C global optical model potential.Possible physical explanations for the observed differences are further discussed.

Global optical model potential describing 12C-nucleus elastic scattering

We construct a new global optical model potential to describe the elastic scattering of 12C.The experimental data of elastic-scattering angular distributions and total reaction cross sections for targets from 24Mg to 209Bi are considered below 200 MeV within the framework of the optical model.The results calculated using the derived global optical potential are then compared with the existing experimental data.The reliability of the global optical potential is further tested by predicting the elastic scattering data out of the mass and energy ranges,within which the global potential parameters are determined,and reasonable results are also obtained.

Applicability of 9Be global optical potential to description of 8,10,11B elastic scattering

We achieved a set of 9Be global phenomenological optical model potentials by fitting a large experimental dataset of the elastic scattering observable for target mass numbers from 24 to 209.The obtained 9Be global optical model potential was applied to predict elastic-scattering angular distributions and total reaction cross-sections of 8,10,11B projectiles.The predictions are made by performing a detailed analysis comparing with the available experimental data.Furthermore,these elastic scattering observables are also predicted for some lighter targets outside of the given mass number range,and reasonable results are obtained.Possible physical explanations for the observed differences are also discussed.
