Reaction and proton-removal cross sections of Li, Be, B, C, ^{12N, O and Ne on Si at 15 to 53 MeV/nucleon
Excitation functions for total reaction cross sections, , were
measured for the light, mainly proton-rich nuclei Li, Be, B,
C, N, O, and Ne incident on a Si telescope
at energies between 15 and 53 MeV/nucleon. The telescope served as target,
energy degrader and detector. Proton-removal cross sections, for
Ne and for most of the other projectiles, were also measured.
The strong absorption model reproduces the -dependence of , but
not the detailed structure. Glauber multiple scattering theory and the JLM
folding model provided improved descriptions of the measured values.
radii, extracted from the measured using the optical limit of
Glauber theory, are in good agreement with those obtained from high energy
data. One-proton removal reactions are described using an extended Glauber
model, incorporating second order noneikonal corrections, realistic single
particle densities, and spectroscopic factors from shell model calculations.Comment: 16 pages, 6 figure

Proton recoil polarization in exclusive (e,e'pp) reactions
The general formalism of nucleon recoil polarization in the () reaction is given. Numerical predictions are presented for the
components of the outgoing proton polarization and of the polarization transfer
coefficient in the specific case of the exclusive O()C knockout reaction leading to discrete states in the residual
nucleus. Reaction calculations are performed in a direct knockout framework
where final-state interactions and one-body and two-body currents are included.
The two-nucleon overlap integrals are obtained from a calculation of the
two-proton spectral function of O where long-range and short-range
correlations are consistently included. The comparison of results obtained in
different kinematics confirms that resolution of different final states in the
O()C reaction may act as a filter to
disentangle and separately investigate the reaction processes due to
short-range correlations and two-body currents and indicates that measurements
of the components of the outgoing proton polarization may offer good
opportunities to study short-range correlations.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figure
Energy Dependence of the NN t-matrix in the Optical Potential for Elastic Nucleon-Nucleus Scattering
The influence of the energy dependence of the free NN t-matrix on the optical
potential of nucleon-nucleus elastic scattering is investigated within the
context of a full-folding model based on the impulse approximation. The
treatment of the pole structure of the NN t-matrix, which has to be taken into
account when integrating to negative energies is described in detail. We
calculate proton-nucleus elastic scattering observables for O,
Ca, and Pb between 65 and 200 MeV laboratory energy and study
the effect of the energy dependence of the NN t-matrix. We compare this result
with experiment and with calculations where the center-of-mass energy of the NN
t-matrix is fixed at half the projectile energy. It is found that around 200
MeV the fixed energy approximation is a very good representation of the full
calculation, however deviations occur when going to lower energies (65 MeV).Comment: 11 pages (revtex), 6 postscript figure

Short-range and tensor correlations in the O(e,epn) reaction
The cross sections for electron induced two-nucleon knockout reactions are
evaluated for the example of the O(e,epn)N reaction leading to
discrete states in the residual nucleus N. These calculations account
for the effects of nucleon-nucleon correlations and include the contributions
of two-body meson exchange currents as the pion seagull, pion in flight and the
isobar current contribution. The effects of short-range as well as tensor
correlations are calculated within the framework of the coupled cluster method
employing the Argonne V14 potential as a model for a realistic nucleon-nucleon
interaction. The relative importance of correlation effects as compared to the
contribution of the meson exchange currents depends on the final state of the
residual nucleus. The cross section leading to specific states, like e.g. the
ground state of N, is rather sensitive to the details of the correlated
wave function.Comment: 16 pages, 9 figures include
Two-proton overlap functions in the Jastrow correlation method and cross section of the OC reaction
Using the relationship between the two-particle overlap functions (TOF's) and
the two-body density matrix (TDM), the TOF's for the
OC reaction are calculated on the
basis of a TDM obtained within the Jastrow correlation method. The main
contributions of the removal of and pairs from O
are considered in the calculation of the cross section of the
OC reaction using the Jastrow TOF's
which include short-range correlations (SRC). The results are compared with the
cross sections calculated with different theoretical treatments of the TOF's.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figures, ReVTeX
