Abstract:
In the context of the cluster model applied to the nuclear reaction d þ 6
Li at a laboratory energy of 171 MeV, the
nucleus 6
Li was examined within the framework of an a þ p þ n cluster model. The three-body model concept was
incorporated into the interaction potential for the d þ 6
Li system through the construction of a double-folding potential based on the three-body model.
The computed double-folding potential was employed as the real component of the optical potential for analyzing the
experimental differential cross-section of elastic scattering in the d þ 6
Li nuclear reaction at 171 MeV laboratory
energy. Meanwhile, the imaginary component was chosen as the Woods-Saxon potential. The parameters of the optical
potential were adjusted to optimize agreement with experimental data.
This study includes comparisons between the calculated semi-microscopic potential and a phenomenological potential, accomplished through differential cross-section analysis. Additionally, parameters of the potentials are presented in tabular form. The best agreement with experimental differential cross-sections was achieved using the
computed folding potential, based on the three-body model, which clearly indicates the a þ p þ n cluster structure
within the 6
Li nucleus.
