Investigation of interaction processes of light nuclei with 14N

Abstract

Elastic scattering of 3He on 14N as an example of 1p-shell nuclei at 50 and 60 MeV has been investigated within the framework of Optical Model. In the Optical Model analysis, both microscopic double-folding and phenomenological potentials for the real part of the complex nuclear potential have been used. For both microscopic double-folding and phenomenological analyses, the imaginary potential has taken to be WS volume shaped. It is noticed that while a normalization of the strength of the double-folding real potential is needed to explain the structure observed in the experimental data, a good agreement between experimental data is obtained for the phenomenological potential case.
