Cross Section Calculations of Deuteron-induced Reactions Using the Extended CCONE Code

Development of a code system DEURACS for theoretical analysis and prediction of deuteron-induced reactions

“…Under these circumstances, we have so far developed an integrated code system dedicated for theoretical analysis and prediction of deuteron-induced reactions, which is called DEUteron-induced Reaction Analysis Code System (DEURACS) [6][7][8][9][10][11]. DEURACS consists of several calculation codes based on theoretical models to describe respective reaction mechanisms characteristic of deuteron-induced reactions.…”

“…Therefore, we have so far focused on nucleon emission from deuteron-induced reactions and examined the applicability of DEURACS to such reactions. In our previous work, DEURACS was successfully applied to analyses of DDXs for (d,xp) reactions at incidenet energies of 56 and 100 MeV [6][7][8], activation cross sections by (d, p) reactions from threshold to 50 MeV [7][8][9], and double-differential thick target neutron yields (TTNYs) from (d,xn) reactions up to 50 MeV [10,11]. Note that other microscopic calculations of inclusive (d,xp) reactions have been recently reported by other research groups [18,19].…”

Modelling and analysis of nucleon emission from deuteron-induced reactions at incident energies up to 100 MeV

“…As shown in Fig.4, the proton stripping process is dominant in the incident energy below 50 MeV. In our previous works [6][7][8][9], the calculation results have shown that the neutron stripping process is dominant in forward proton emission at 56 and 100 MeV. These results indicate that the stripping processes make a dominat contribution to neucleon emission in the whole incident energy range below 100 MeV and they should be taken into account using reliable theoretical models.…”

“…Therefore, we have so far developed a computational code system dedicated to deuteron-induced reactions in combination with some theoretical models [6][7][8][9]. Elastic breakup and stripping reactions to continuum are calculated using the codes based on the ContinuumDiscretized Coupled-Channels method (CDCC) [10] and the Glauber model [6], respectively.…”

“…Finally, preequilibrium and evaporation components are estimated using the CCONE code [12], which was successfully applied to neutron nuclear data evaluation for the latest version of Japanese Evaluated Nuclear Data Library (JENDL-4.0) [13]. In our previous works, the code system has been successfully applied to systematic analyses of double-differential cross sections (DDXs) of (d,xp) reactions for 12 C, 27 Al, and 58 Ni at incident energies up to 100 MeV [7][8][9]. The calculation is in good agreement with the experimental data.…”
