Derivation of breakup-fusion cross sections from the optical theorem

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
It is shown that the formula for the breakup-fusion cross section, used successfully to explain observed massive transfer cross sections, having been derived originally by Kerman and McVoy, can be rederived, based on the optical theorem involving a complex potential.
