Imaginary part of the Coulomb correction in nucleon scattering from /sup 28/Si

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
Cross sections for elastic scattering of neutrons from /sup 28/Si have been measured at 30.3 and 40.0 MeV. Phenomenological values of the Coulomb correction term in the nucleon-nucleus optical-model potential are obtained from a comparison of proton and neutron elastic scattering data for /sup 28/Si between 14 and 40 MeV. For energies less than about 28 MeV the result is similar to that obtained from an analysis of /sup 40/Ca data. For higher energies the imaginary Coulomb correction is substantially larger for /sup 28/Si than for /sup 40/Ca.
