By a simple modification of the sharp cutoff (Blair) approximation, a phase-shift analysis has been found to reproduce the experimental alpha-particle elastic scattering data from silver. Only two adjustable parameters were required to fit the experimental data for 22-Mev scattering; four parameters were used for the 40-Mev data. The uniqueness of the fits has not been determined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
