Microscopic optical model analysis of nucleon scattering from light nuclei

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
; ; ;
Differential cross sections for neutron elastic scattering from /sup 12/C, /sup 14/N, /sup 16/O, and /sup 27/Al have been measured in the energy range 18--26 MeV. These data, together with previously published neutron and proton data for these nuclei and for /sup 12/C in the energy region 20 to 65 MeV, have been analyzed in terms of two microscopic optical potentials. The spherical potential derived from the work of Jeukenne, Lejeune, and Mahaux provides a consistent representation of the differential data, provided the imaginary central potential is renormalized. Predictions from the interaction of Brieva and Rook give less satisfactory agreement. In particular, there is a significant overprediction of the forward angle data below approx.25 MeV and an underprediction above approx.35 MeV.
