An investigation of the elastic scattering of 17O projectiles by different target nuclei using the CDCC method

Abstract

The Continuum Discretized Coupled Channels (CDCC) method is a convenient method that was developed in order to examine weakly bound nuclei. For this purpose, the elastic scattering data of 17 O projectile for 90 Zr, 124 Sn and 208 P b target nuclei were investigated at 340 MeV using the CDCC method. In calculations using this method, 17 O projectiles were taken to be .Optical potentials were selected as the interaction potentials. It was seen that the results obtained were compatible with the experimental data. The effects of excited channels in all three systems were also determined.
