The [Formula: see text] Al cross section and analyzing power angular distributions were measured at Ep = 17.0 MeV. The fits to the cluster DWBA calculations have shown that the analyzing power can play an important role in the determination of the correct optical model parameters.

The [Formula: see text] reaction has been studied using 17 MeV deuterons with a vector polarization of ~0.75 from the McMaster University tandem Van de Graaff accelerator. Measurements were made at 18 angles from 6° to 57.5° using a magnetic spectrograph equipped with a position-sensitive proportional counter in the focal plane. It was found that the [Formula: see text] reaction is a very powerful technique for spin determinations in this mass region as the vector analyzing powers have quite large magnitudes. A DWBA calculation with optical model parameters previously optimized to fit cross-section angular distributions was also successful in predicting the analyzing powers for states of known spin and parity. The measured analyzing powers made it possible to give unambiguous spin assignments for over 15 states for which spin information was previously conflicting, incomplete, or lacking.

A 54Fe(n, n'γ) cross section measurement was performed at the Geel Electron LINear Accelerator of EC-JRC, Geel using the Gamma Array for Inelastic Neutron Scattering spectrometer and a 235U fission chamber for flux normalization. The experimental results are presented in comparison with talys 1.9 default and tuned calculations. The tuned calculation, implying modifications of the optical model parameters, improved significantly the description of the experimental values and led to interesting conclusions regarding the interaction of the 54Fe nucleus with neutrons. Since the results of these calculations were already presented extensively in a dedicated paper, the present article focuses on details related to the experimental particularities and data analysis procedure.

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.

The reactions 48Ti(α,p)51V at ten bombarding energies between 8.25 and 10.75 MeV and 50Ti(3He,d)51V at 10 MeV bombarding energy have been studied. Energy levels of 51V up to 4.85 and 6.17 MeV have been observed by (α,p) and (3He,d) reactions respectively. The (α,p) reaction yielded many new energy levels. The angular distributions for deuterons were measured at lab angles between 15° and 120°, and compared with predictions of DWBA calculations using the TSALLY code from which the transferred angular momenta and spectroscopic factors were deduced. These experimental results are examined from the viewpoint of shell model and strong coupling rotator model calculations. The effect of changing various optical model parameters is also discussed.

The angular distributions of the ground state proton groups from 3He-induced reactions with 13C and BN targets have been measured at a bombarding energy of 15 MeV. The DWBA program DWUCK has been used to fit the differential cross sections with no free parameters. The optical model parameters for the proton-residual nucleus channel were taken from the literature, and the 3He-target nucleus channel parameters were obtained by fitting the 3He elastic scattering differential cross sections.

In order to determine the cross section of a reaction by the angular distribution method, it is essential to calculate the angular distributions of all secondary transitions that lead to the ground state. This is achieved by analysing spectra from HPGe detectors at various detection angles, which is a time consuming process. In this work, a simpler angle integration method is presented that allows to determine cross sections of capture reactions by measuring spectra at fewer detection angles.

The alpha (α) elastic scattering from different targets potential over the energy range 10–240 MeV has been analyzed in the framework of the single-folding (SF) optical model. Four targets are considered, namely, 24 Mg , 28 Si , 32 S and 40 Ca . The SF calculations for the real central part of the nuclear optical potential are performed by folding an effective α–α interaction with the α-cluster distribution density in the target nucleus. The imaginary part of the optical potential is expressed in the phenomenological Woods–Saxon (WS) form. The calculated angular distributions of the elastic scattering differential cross-section using the derived semimicroscopic potentials successfully reproduce 36 sets of data all over the measured angular ranges. The obtained results confirm the validity of the α-cluster structure of the considered nuclei. For the sake of comparison, the same sets of data are reanalyzed using microscopic double-folded optical potentials based upon the density-dependent Jeukenne–Lejeune–Mahaux (JLM) effective nucleon–nucleon interaction.
