The nuclear isotopic structure can be understood easily via the intermediate-energy charge exchange reactions of (p, n) and [Formula: see text]He, [Formula: see text] type. In the current contribution, we present some results for charge exchange reactions induced by 3He on targets lying in mass region [Formula: see text] within the theoretical framework of plane wave impulse approximation (PWIA) and distorted wave impulse approximation (DWIA). Here, the recoil effects in PWIA have also been considered. Particularly, the angular distributions and the unit cross-sections have been calculated and compared with the available data. Further, the importance of inclusion of the exchange contribution in these reactions is also considered, which eventually enhance the matching with data.

The (p, n) and (n, p) charge-exchange reactions are a suitable tool in nuclear-structure studies. At intermediate energies, the interaction with the target resembles that between free nucleons, which makes the probes mostly susceptible to the spin dynamics of the nucleus. We review the current theoretical picture of nucleon–nucleus charge-exchange reactions. A brief introduction to the theory of direct reactions in the impulse approximation is given. We then discuss the random-phase approximation (RPA) linear response theory, which is widely used in the calculation of cross sections and related observables. To understand correctly the shape of the continuum cross sections, one needs a more sophisticated theory. We discuss suitable extensions of the RPA that incorporate spreading effects as well as escape effects. Charge-exchange reactions of the (n, p) type have important implications for the evolution of massive stars. The relevance for Type-II supernovae is discussed.

The nucleon charge–exchange reaction is investigated as a probe of isovector modes of nuclear excitation at both small and large momentum transfer. The calculated and extracted properties of the isovector nucleon–nucleon interaction are discussed and illustrated with an emphasis on incident energies in excess of 100 MeV. Particular emphasis is placed on spin observables and the roles played by different parts of the nucleon–nucleon coupling in their determination. Recent measurements of transverse polarization transfer at 0° in the charge-exchange continuum are compared with distorted wave impulse approximation calculations using random–phase approximation transition densities.

Charge transfer of an electron from a neutral atom to an ion is a fundamental interaction that plays a dominant role in the energy balance of atmospheric and astrophysical plasmas. The present investigation measured the charge exchange cross sections of noble gas ions (He + , Ne + , Ar + , Kr + ) with N 2 in the intermediate energy range 0.2–5.0 keV. The systems were chosen because there remains a lack of consensus amongst previous measurements and regions where there were no previous measurements. A description of the mechanical design for an electrically floated gas cell is described herein.

A review is presented of charge exchange reactions of multiply charged ions with atomic hydrogen and helium at thermal-eV energies, typical of the physical conditions encountered in planetary nebulae. The basic features of the processes are analyzed in the framework of the molecular model of atomic collisions. A discussion is given of the different theoretical approaches to the calculation of the collision cross sections. A comparison with recent experimental data is included.

It is shown that reactions with one-pion exchange, reactions of meson production in the central region and reactions of nucleon-antinucleon annihilation can be good laboratories to search, in the ρ+ρ+ and ρ−ρ−channels, for the exotic resonance states E++ and E−− with IG(JP)=2+(2+), the signs of the neutral partner of which were discovered probably in the reactions γγ→ρρ. Detailed estimates are presented for the cross sections of the reactions π+p→E++n→ρ+ρ+n, π−ρ→E−−Δ++→ρ−ρ−∆++, ρρ→n(E++)n→n(ρ+ρ+)n and similar ones at intermediate energies.
