We present a chiral K¯N interaction model that has been developed and optimized in order to account for the experimental data of inelastic K¯N reaction channels that open at higher energies. In particular, we study the effect of the higher partial waves, which originate directly from the chiral Lagrangian, as they could supersede the role of high-spin resonances employed in earlier phenomenological models to describe meson-baryon cross sections in the 2 GeV region. We present a detailed derivation of the partial wave amplitudes that emerge from the chiral SU(3) meson-baryon Lagrangian up to the d-waves and next-to-leading order in the chiral expansion. We implement a nonperturbative unitarization in coupled channels and optimize the model parameters to a large pool of experimental data in the relevant energy range where these new contributions are expected to be important. The obtained results are encouraging. They indicate the ability of the chiral higher partial waves to extend the description of the scattering data to higher energies and to account for structures in the reaction cross-sections that cannot be accommodated by theoretical models limited to the s-waves.

Reaction Cross Sections

About 35 nuclides which lie on the neutron deficient side of the isotopic chart cannot be created by the two basic nucleosynthetic processes, the sand the rprocess. Due to scarce experimental data and the vast complexity of the reaction network involved, cross sections and reactions are estimated theoretically, using the Hauser–Feshbach statistical model. In the present work, theoretical calculations of cross sections of radiative α-capture reactions on the neutron–deficient Erbium and Xenon isotopes are presented in an attempt to make predictions inside the astrophysically relevant energy window (Gamow). The particular reactions are predicted to be sensitive branchings in the γprocess path.The most recent versions of TALYS (v1.9) and Fresco codes were employed for all calculations, initially focusing on investigating the influence of the default eight (8) α–nucleus optical potential models of TALYS on reaction cross sections. The theoretical results of both codes are compared and for the reactions where experimental data exist in literature, the optical model parameters were adjusted appropriately to best describe the data and were subsequently used for estimating (α,γ) reaction cross sections. Predictions for the (α,n) reaction channels have also been calculated and studied.

An overview of calculations performed within the Continuum Discretized Coupled Channels (CDCC) approach for deuteron induced reactions is given. We briefly present an extension of the CDCC formalism which accounts for the target excitations allowing us to determine ( d , d ') cross sections off deformed nuclei. We compare some calculated inelastic cross sections with experimental data. Then it is shown that the CDCC formalism can also be a useful tool to determine ( d , p ) cross sections. This point is illustrated with 54 Cr ( d , p )55 Cr reactions.

The evaluation are based on mainly on the calculations of the nuclear optical model potential and relevant parameters are collected and selected from References Input Parameter Library (RIPL) which is being developed under the international project coordinated by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The analyzing of a complete energy range has done starting from threshold energy for each reaction. The cross sections are reproduced in fine steps of incident neutron energy with 0.01MeV intervals with their corresponding errors. The recommended cross sections for available experimental data taken from EXFOR library have been calculated for all the considered neutron induced reactions for U-238 isotopes. The calculated results are analyzed and compared with the experimental data. The optimized optical potential model parameters give a very good agreement with the experimental data over the energy range 0.001-20MeV for neutron induced cross section reactions (n,f), (n,tot), (n,el), (n,inl), (n,2n), (n,3n), and (n,γ) for spherical U-238 target elements.

We have investigated Uranium ions interaction at energy 14.0 MeV /u incident on a Vanadium target using mica as nuclear track detector. The detector exposure was made from ions beam facility at UNILAC accelerator of GSI Darmstadt, Germany. The etched detector was scanned using an optical microscope. From the total binary tracks data events, elastic track events were separated using angular correlation criterion. The elastic scattering data have been separated from the binary events and used for the determination of quarter-point angle θ1/4 (grazing angle). Total and partial reaction cross-sections are measured using the statistic of inelastic two-pronged and higher multiplicity tracks. The experimental measured cross-sections are compared with the cross-sections calculated using sharp cut-off model. The theoretical prediction of reaction parameters of interacting heavy ions have also been determined, that are comparable with experimental measured values.

Reaction Cross Sections

Nuclear reaction cross sections derived from statistical-model calculations have been used in the calculation of thermonuclear reaction rates for 36 nuclei at temperatures that are representative of the interiors of evolving stars and supernovae as nucleosynthesis approaches the production of nuclei with N = 28. The statistical-model calculations used optical-model parameters in the particle channels which had been selected to give the best overall agreement between theoretical and experimental cross sections for reactions on stable target nuclei in the mass and energy ranges of importance for the stellar conditions of interest. The optical-model parameters used, and the stellar reaction rates obtained, are tabulated. Comparisons are made between these stellar rates and those from other statistical-model calculations in the literature.

The nuclear data on n+239,240,242,244Pu reactions for the incident energy up to 200 MeV are consistently calculated and evaluated in order to meet the design requirements of Generation-IV reactors and accelerator driven systems. The optical model, the distorted wave Born approximation theory, the Hauser-Feshbach theory, the fission model, the evaporation model, the exciton model and the intranuclear cascade model are used in the calculation, and new experimental data are taken into account. Our data are compared with experimental data and the evaluated data from JENDL-4/HE and TENDL. In addition, the variation tendency of reaction cross sections related to the target mass numbers is obtained, which is very important for the prediction of nuclear data on neutron-actinides reactions because the experimental data are lacking.

This paper presents the experimental double-differential and integral cross sections of reactions (p,xp), and (p,xα) on natCu nucleus. The experiment with the protons, accelerated to energy of 30.0 MeV was performed at the isochronous cyclotron of Institute of Nuclear Physics (Kazakhstan). We investigated the adequacy of the theoretical models in explaining the measured experimental data and contributions of direct, preequilibrium and compound processes in the formation of the cross sections were determined. We assert that the traditional frameworks are valid for the description of the experimental data.

We show that pre-equlibrium inelastic scattering reactions to the continuum contain substantial collective components in addition to the multistep direct and multistep compound reactions. These collective reactions are investigated for the vibrational nuclei 56Fe, 58Ni, 90Zr, 93Nb, 208Pb and 209Bi , and the strongly-deformed, rotational W nucleus. The collective cross-sections are calculated using the experimental data for low-lying collective excitations supplemented where necessary by the giant multipole resonances evaluated using the energy-weight ed sum rule. The MSC and MSD cross-sections are evaluated by the Feshbach-Kerman-Koonin theory using a consistent set of parameters determined by analyses of (p, xn) reactions, that have practically no collective components. The results are compared with high-resolution neutron inelastic scattering data and prove able to account for the absolute magnitude of the cross-sections and also their detailed structure.

AbstractThe elastic scattering in the reaction $$^{7}$$ 7 Li+$$^{208}$$ 208 Pb was investigated in the bombarding energy range from 25 to 39 MeV. The real and imaginary parts of the optical potential were analyzed by using a phenomenological potential. A dispersion relation analysis is presented in order to investigate the threshold anomaly effect. It is concluded that $$^{7}$$ 7 Li has an intermediate behavior between the tightly bound nuclei such as $$^{16}$$ 16 O and the loosely bound nuclei such as $$^{6}$$ 6 Li where the lack of the threshold anomaly is unambiguously observed. Reaction cross sections are also extracted from the elastic scattering data and its comparison with the ones of other systems has been performed to draw hints on the effect of the breakup channel.
