Quantum-mechanical cross-section for the inelastic collisions characterized by large values of the angular momenta is analysed. For the case of a planar mechanism of the reaction the approximation of the small helicity is drawn.
The analysis of classical description of the statistical angular distributions is given and the criterion of its applicability is obtained by the comparison with the exact quantal calculations. It is shown that the approach considered can be applied to a wide range of experiments dealing with the compound heavy ion reactions.
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.
