ABACUS 1--PRELIMINARY DESCRIPTION AND INPUT PREPARATION

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4107951
The ABACUS system is a digital computer program for the determination of cross sections. It provides for the calculation of wave functions according to the nuclear optical model. From these data it will further give the shape elastic and total cross sections, the elastic and inelastic scattering cross sections according to Hauser-Feshbach theory, and various radial integrals of products of wave functions useful in cross-section evaluations. The program, written for the PHlLCO-2000, also contains procedures for determining "best" optical model parameters. (auth)
