INELASTIC SCATTERING OF NUCLEONS BY ASYMMETRICALLY DEFORMED NUCLEI. A COMMENT ON THE STRUCTURE OF MEDIUM WEIGHT NUCLEI
The inelastic scattering of nucleons by direct excitation of nuclear rotational states is investigated, in which the target nucleus is described by an asymmetric top wave function as recently proposed by Davydov and Filippov. Then, in even nuclei, not only the first rotation state, but also another 2/sup +/ rotation state can be excited by the first order direct interaction. The cross sections to these two states are presented as functions of the deformation parameters beta and gamma of A Bohr. Brief discussions are added in connection with the vibration model. It is pointed out that the measurement of these cross sections and angular correlations between emitted nucleons and gamma -rays would provide means for determing the structure of medium weight nuclei.
