The theory of multiple scattering has been worked out by Groves and comparisons have been made between predicted and observed signals for thick specimens observed in a STEM under conditions where phase contrast effects are unimportant. Independent measurements of the collection efficiencies of the two STEM detectors, calculations of the ratio σe/σi = R, where σe, σi are the total cross sections for elastic and inelastic scattering respectively, and a model of the unknown mass distribution are needed for these comparisons. In this paper an extension of this work will be described which allows the determination of the required efficiencies, R, and the unknown mass distribution from the data without additional measurements or models. Essential to the analysis is the fact that in a STEM two or more signal measurements can be made simultaneously at each image point.

The Monte Carlo calculations of McManus and Sharp (unpublished) for the prompt nuclear processes occurring upon bombardment of heavy elements by 400 Mev. protons are combined with a description of the subsequent neutron evaporation to determine spallation cross sections for comparison with experiment. The model employed is a schematic one which suppresses the detailed characteristics of individual nuclei, but gives the over-all behavior to be expected. Many-particle and collective effects such as alpha particle emission and fission are ignored. The computed cross sections are presented in a variety of different graphical forms which illustrate quantitatively the qualitative picture of high energy reactions first given by Serber (1947). The calculations are in general agreement with existing data when fission is not an important effect, but the agreement does not imply a very stringent test of the various features of the model.

Angular distributions of the analyzing power and cross sections have been measured for the elastic and inelastic scattering of 25.25 MeV protons exciting the K = 0+ ground-state band in 28Si. Good agreement with experiment is obtained in the coupled-channels formalism on the basis of the rotational model with a quadrupole deformation β2 = −0.40 (oblate) and a hexadecapole deformation β4 = +0.15. The calculations show the great sensitivity of the experimental results to both the magnitude and sign of the quadrupole and hexadecapole deformations. Equivalent fits of the data were obtained either by keeping the deformation length of the various deformed terms of the optical potential constant (δ0 = β0R0 = βIRI = βLSRLS) or by increasing the deformation of the spin–orbit optical potential relative to the central potential by a factor of 1.5 (βLS = 1.5βcent).

Elastic and inelastic scattering of protons on 7Li, 9Be, and 12C have been studied, using the 100-MeV proton beam from the McGill synchrocyclotron. Differential cross sections for the various groups of scattered protons were measured over an angular range of 5° to 90° (lab). For proton groups resulting from a quadrupole excitation in the target nucleus, the angular distribution was found to increase at scattering angles less than 10°. Angular distributions corresponding to an octupole excitation were observed to decrease at small angles. The results have been compared with existing data in this energy region.

The reaction 120 +120 has been studied at an incident laboratory energy of 123 MeV. Angular distributions of the emitted oc-particles and protons have been obtained. These angular distributions yielded values of 2�6 �O �3 barnsr and 1�5 �O . 2 barns for the total cross sections for oc-particle and proton production respectively.
