Simple Derivation of the Hauser-Feshbach and Weisskopf-Ewing Formulae, with Application to Surrogate Reactions
The analysis of surrogate reactions, an indirect technique for determining cross sections on unstable nuclei, relies heavily on compound-nuclear reaction models. The purpose of this tutorial is to provide an introduction to the principal models, based on the Hauser-Feshbach and Weisskopf-Ewing formalisms, and to show how they are applied to surrogate reactions.
