Full-folding optical potential for preequilibrium nucleon scattering at low energies

The real part of the optical potential for the nucleon-nucleus scattering at lower energies (E_i<100MeV) has been calculated including nucleonic and mesonic form factors by a double folding approach. Realistic density- and energy-dependent effective NN-interactions DDM3Y, BDM3Y and HLM3Y based on the Reid and Paris potentials are used in this respect. The effects of the nucleon density distribution and the average relative momentum on the folded potential have been analysed. A good agreement with the phenomenological potential of Lagrange-Lejeune, as well as with the parametrization of Jeukenne-Lejeune-Mahaux for both neutron and proton double-folded potentials is obtained. The results indicate that the strongly simplified model interactions used in preequilibrium reaction theory neglect important dynamical details of such processes.

Particle-hole state densities with non-equidistant single-particle levels

The correct use of energy-dependent single-particle level (s.p.l.) densities within particle-hole state densities based on the equidistant spacing model (ESM) is analysed. First, an analytical expression is obtained following the convolution of energy-dependent excited-particle and hole densities. Next, a comparison is made with results of the ESM formula using average s.p.l. densities for the excited particles and holes, respectively. The Fermi-gas model (FGM) s.p.l. densities calculated at the corresponding average excitation energies are used in both cases. The analysis concerns also the density of particle-hole bound states. The pairing correlations are taken into account while the comparison of various effects includes the exact correction for the Pauli exclusion principle. Quantum-mechanical s.p.l. densities and the continuum effect can also match a corresponding FGM formula, suitable for use within the average energy-dependent partial state density in multistep reaction models.

Quantum-Mechanical Analysis of Single-Particle Level Density

A quantum-mechanical calculation of the single-particle level (s.p.l.) density $g(ε)$ is carried on by using the connection with the single-particle Green's function. The relation between the imaginary part of Green's function and single-particle wave functions is used separately for the discrete and continuous states. Within the bound-states region the imaginary part of the Green's function is calculated by using the wronskian theorem. The Green's function corresponding to the continuum is written by using the regular and Jost solutions of the radial Schrodinger equation. The smooth part of the rapidly fluctuating s.p.l. density is calculated by means of the Strutinski procedure. The continuum component of the s.p.l. density has rather close values within either exact quantum-mechanical calculations with the Woods-Saxon (WS) potential, or Thomas-Fermi approximation with WS as well as finite-square potential wells, provided that the free-gas contribution is subtracted. A similar trend is obtained by means of the simple FGM formula for the s.p.l. density if the continuum effect is taken into account.
