Neutron-/sup 40/Ca mean field between -80 and +80 MeV from a dispersive optical-model analysis

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The n-/sup 40/Ca complex mean field is derived from a dispersive optical-model analysis of the available experimental cross sections. In this analysis the real part of the mean field contains dispersive contributions which are derived from the imaginary part by means of a dispersion relation. These dispersive contributions must be added to the Hartree-Fock potential which is assumed to have a Woods-Saxon shape, with a depth V/sub H/(E) that depends exponentially upon energy. The input experimental data are 14 differential cross sections in the energy domain (5.3, 40.0 MeV), five polarization cross sections in the domain (9.9, 16.9 MeV), and the total cross section in the domain (2.5, 80 MeV).
