Title: Surrogate Nuclear Reactions - An Indirect Method for Determining Reaction Cross Sections

Journal Article · · Journal of Physics G

An indirect method for determining cross sections of reactions proceeding through a compound nucleus is presented. Some applications of the Surrogate nuclear reaction approach are considered and challenges that need to be addressed are outlined.
