Investigation of 6Li+24Mg Elastic Scattering Using Different Folding Models

Document Type : Novel Research Articles

Abstract

In the present study we investigate the 6Li+24Mg elastic scattering at two energies 88 and 240 MeV in the framework of the optical model. Two optical real potentials are used here, according to α-cluster structure of the colliding nuclei. The first double folding (DF) potential for the real central part of the nuclear optical potential is done by folding the α-n and α-α effective interactions between target and projectile nuclei over the density distributions of α-clusters in the target (24Mg) nucleus and considering the α-deuteron (α-D) structure of the projectile (6Li) nucleus. We call this one is double folding cluster (DFC). The Second potential is DF optical potentials based upon the São Paulo (SP) potential. The imaginary part of the optical potential is calculated in the Woods-Saxon form (WS) for DFC, while for SP both imaginary WS and imaginary folded potentials are used. The experimental angular distributions of the elastic scattering data are successfully obtained using the derived potential. It is found that introducing a real renormalization factor, NR, smaller than unity is essential in order to obtain successful description of the data. The obtained values of NR in case of SP are more close to unity than those of DFC. The obtained results confirm the validity of the SP to generate nucleus-nucleus optical potentials.
