Analyzing powers and cross sections have been measured for elastic and inelastic scattering of 40 MeV polarized protons from 90Zr and 92Zr. The analysis has been carried out in the DWBA within the framework of the macroscopic and microscopic models. Furthermore, the coupled-channels calculations using the vibrational model and the full Thomas form for the spin–orbit potential give a very good description for both the cross sections and the analyzing powers of the iow-lying2+, 3−, 5−, and 4+ states in 92Zr and the 2+ and 3− in 90Zr. The cross section and analyzing power for the first 2+ state in these nuclei were compared with previous results at 30 and 20.3 MeV, and from this comparison a certain energy dependence of the relative strength of the spin–orbit deformation to the central deformation could be observed. Microscopic model calculations with tensor and spin–orbit components included in the projectile–target real interaction and with an exact treatment of knock-on' exchange have been performed for the 2+ states in these nuclei. An attempt has also been made in order to include the imaginary component in the N–N interaction. For these calculations, rather good agreement was obtained especially for the 2+ state in 92Zr but poor agreement for 90Zr. Finally, valence plus core polarization calculations have also been done and showed a very good agreement between theory and experiment for those 2+ transitions.

Analyzing powers and cross sections have been measured for elastic and inelastic scattering of 30 MeV polarized protons from 90Zr, 92Zr, and 92Mo. The experimental results are analyzed in terms of the coupled-channels formalism using the vibrational model. The best fits for the analyzing power for all the nuclei are obtained by using the full Thomas form for the spin–orbit potential. These calculations give a very good description for both the cross sections and the analyzing powers of the low-lying 2+, 3−, 5−, and 4+ states in 90Zr, 92Zr, and 92Mo. Only a small increase of the spin–orbit deformation over the central deformation (βLS/βcentral = 1.5) is needed to reproduce the data; this is contrary to the situation at lower energy where a large increase of this ratio was required (Raynal). Some differences between the 90Zr–92Mo data (which are similar) and the 92Zr data have also been observed; this is, however, in agreement with previous results at lower energy. Microscopic model calculations with tensor and spin–orbit components included in the projectile–target interaction (real interaction), and with an exact treatment of 'knock-on' exchange, have also been performed for the 2+ states in these nuclei. These calculations give a very good agreement with the cross sections but a rather poor agreement with the analyzing powers even when a complex interaction is used.

Differential cross-sections for the elastic and inelastic scattering of [Formula: see text]-particles had been measured at the energy of 48.8[Formula: see text]MeV with excitation of low-lying states of the [Formula: see text] nucleus. The data for transitions to the ground [Formula: see text] and excited [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] states relating to the ground state band were analyzed in the framework of the optical model and the coupled-channel method based on the rotational model. It is shown that the analysis is sensitive not only to the magnitude, but also to the sign of the quadrupole and hexadecapole deformations. The extracted values of the parameters [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are in good agreement with the results of other experiments on the scattering of protons, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]-particles and correspond to the data known from the electron scattering and Coulomb excitation.

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.

In this work, we simultaneously reanalyzed the differential elastic scattering cross-sections ([Formula: see text]) and the vector analyzing power ([Formula: see text]) of [Formula: see text]He elastic scattering. This analysis was performed using the folded optical model for both real central and spin-orbit (SO) potentials, respectively. For the imaginary central, we used the usual Woods-Saxon (WS) form. Three different model density distributions are used to calculate the potential. We aimed to examine the applicability of the microscopically derived SO potential and the structure effect of 6He nucleus. The presence of the [Formula: see text] experimental data of [Formula: see text]He makes it interesting for this study. Our calculations showed that the three densities gave similar predictions for the cross-sections data. The three microscopic SO potentials calculations of [Formula: see text] are not in a good agreement with the experimental data. We concluded that the SO formalism in its current form needs more investigations for exotic halo nuclei.

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).


The importance of coupling for fast collisions between protons and hydrogen atoms is examined with the two-centred expansion in atomic eigenfunctions proposed by Bates (1958 a ). Cross-sections are evaluated for reactions H + + H (I s ) → H(I s ) + H + , H + + H( I s ) → H(2 s ) + H + , and H + + H(l a ) → H + + H(2 s ). The effect of a single intermediate state, either I s or 2 s , is considered. For the non-resonance processes, it is found that the cross-sections may be substantially increased by passage through intermediate state for incident energies less than about 10 keV, tending towards equality with decrease in relative velocity. Results obtained for the symmetrical resonance reactions are in good agreement with the two-state solutions of McCarroll (1961).

Based on the Perey–Buck nonlocal optical model potential, F. Perey and B. Buck, Nucl. Phys. 32 (1962) 353, we obtain a new set of nonlocal optical model potential (NLOMP) parameters for proton and neutron scattering off nuclei. The experimental angular distributions of nucleon scattering off nuclei ranging from 27 Al to 208 Pb with incident energies around 10 MeV to 30 MeV are adopted in the fitting procedures. This NLOMP is energy independent. The chi-squares χ2 obtained in the fittings are comparable to those from the KD03 phenomenological local optical model potentials (OMP) A. Koning and J. Delaroche, Nucl. Phys. A 713 (2003) 231. Good agreement is found in comparisons between optical model calculations using this NLOMP and KD03 in their reproduction to the experimental angular distributions of elastic scattering cross-sections and analyzing powers.
