TL;DR: In this article, the Coulomb nuclear interference dip observed in the inelastic excitation functions could not be fitted satisfactorily with calculation, and an energy dependent term of Gaussian shape was added to the associated matrix element with the reorientation coupling in the phenomenological calculations.

TL;DR: In this article, a new formulation of the theory of nuclear reactions based on the properties of a generalized "optical" potential is presented, where the real and imaginary part of this potential satisfy a dispersion type relation while its poles give rise to resonances in nuclear reactions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the energy and density dependence of the isoscalar, isovector, and Coulomb components of the complex optical-model potential in infinite nuclear matter, for energies up to 160 MeV.
Abstract: Starting from the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approximation and Reid's hard core nucleon-nucleon interaction, we calculate and parametrize the energy---and the density---dependence of the isoscalar, isovector, and Coulomb components of the complex optical-model potential in infinite nuclear matter, for energies up to 160 MeV. We then construct the optical-model potential in a finite nucleus. In a first step, we adopt a local density approximation which implies that the value of the complex potential at each point of the nucleus is the same as in a uniform medium with the local density. We compute the corresponding volume integrals per nucleon and mean square radii of the real and of the imaginary parts of the optical-model potential, in particular for protons scattered by $^{12}\mathrm{C}$, $^{16}\mathrm{O}$, $^{27}\mathrm{Al}$, $^{40}\mathrm{Ca}$, $^{58}\mathrm{Ni}$, $^{120}\mathrm{Sn}$, and $^{208}\mathrm{Pb}$. We compare these results with a compilation of empirical values and find that the calculated and experimental volume integrals are in good agreement but that the theoretical mean square radii are too small. We ascribe this discrepancy to the fact that our local density approximation does not include accurately the effect in a nonuniform medium of the range of the effective interaction. We include this range in a semiphenomenological way suggested by the Hartree approximation. With a reasonable value for this range parameter, which is the only one occurring in our work, good agreement is obtained between the theoretical and the empirical values of the volume integrals and mean square radii of the real and, to a lesser extent, of the imaginary parts of the optical-model potential, for mass numbers $12\ensuremath{\le}A\ensuremath{\le}208$ and for energies $E$ up to 160 MeV. Our results are given in analytic form and can thus be used in analyses of experimental data. We also discuss the difference between the optical-model potentials for protons and for neutrons.[NUCLEAR REACTIONS Calculation of the complex optical-model potential for finite nuclei from Reid's hard core interaction; comparison with a compilation of empirical potentials.]

TL;DR: The double-folding model is generalized for the calculation of nucleus-nucleus potential using the new version of the density-dependent M3Y interaction which reproduces consistently the equilibrium density and binding energy of the normal nuclear matter as well as the density and energy dependence of the nucleon optical potential.
Abstract: The double-folding model is generalized for the calculation of nucleus-nucleus potential using the new version of the density-dependent M3Y interaction which reproduces consistently the equilibrium density and binding energy of the normal nuclear matter as well as the density and energy dependence of the nucleon optical potential. The exchange part of the heavy-ion optical potential is evaluated within a local density formalism, using the finite-range exchange components of the same interaction. The model is used successfully to describe the elastic $^{12}\mathrm{C}$ and $^{16}\mathrm{O}$ scattering data at low and medium energies. The influence of different density-dependent parameters (which determine different nuclear equations of state) on the description of heavy-ion scattering is also discussed.
