Microscopic description of nucleon-nucleus total reaction cross sections

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
Microscopic calculations of the total reaction cross sections for protons on /sup 12/C, /sup 27/Al, /sup 40/Ca, and /sup 208/Pb, and neutrons on /sup 27/Al and /sup 208/Pb have been made, which provide for the first time an excellent description of the data for projectile energies from 15 MeV through 1 GeV. The calculations are based on the experimental nucleon-nucleon total cross sections and explicitly include the effects of the real nuclear potential, the Coulomb potential, Pauli blocking, and Fermi motion.
