Using IMSL routines in algebraic scattering theory for heavy ions

Abstract

The algebraic multi-channel theory for heavy-ion reactions proposed by Alhassid and Iachello is based on a dynamic SO(3,1) symmetry for the scattering matrix S, written in the form S = gamma (J + I + iV) / gamma (J + I - iV), where the arguments of the Euler gamma functions are complex n x n matrices, n being the number of reaction channels, and are written as a combination of the total angular momentum, J, and the complex potential matrix, V; 1 is the n x n identity matrix. Computing S requires diagonalization of the complex matrix, V, and inversion of the matrix of the eigenvectors of V. These operations are to be repeated for some hundred values of J. Thus, the computer time becomes a rapidly increasing function of the maximum J value; therefore, it is important to choose efficient high-precision routines. Starting from a version of the program where the mathematical routines had been taken from version 9 of the IMSL library, an improvement has been obtained by choosing the more efficient versions, DEVCCG and DLINCG, available in version 1.1 of the IMSL MATH library; the routine DEPICG was used for evaluation of the performance index of  More>>
