TL;DR: In this article, the transmission coefficients T l and total reaction cross section σ R for alpha particles in the energy range 0-46 MeV interacting with 20 target nuclei with atomic numbers ranging from 10 to 92 are calculated with an optical model program in which a previously determined complex nuclear potential is utilized.

TL;DR: The angular anisotropy of particles emitted in compound processes is due to restrictions on the directions of their angular moments, which are imposed by the angular momentum distribution of the residual nucleus.
