Abstract
Background: Typically 3He-α reaction has been modeled using Gaussian and Hulthen potentials without incorporating the non-local spin-orbit interaction.Purpose: To obtain the scattering phase shifts (SPS) for α-3He radiative capture reaction for partial waves with total angular momentum J = 1/2, 3/2, 5/2, 7/2 having negative parities and J = 1/2 with positive parity, using Morse potential as the model of interaction along with the associated spin-orbit term.Methods: Phase function method is employed for determining phase shifts in an iterative fashion, by making changes to model parameters, to ensure minimisation of mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) w.r.t. the experimental SPS. Results: SPS have been obtained for 1/2+, 1/2-, 3/2-, 5/2- and 7/2- with MAPE values of 3.2, 1.0, 0.8, 17.6 and 6.5 respectively. The corresponding interaction potentials and partial cross-sections have been plotted. The resonance frequencies for the 5/2- and 7/2- scattering states are closely matching with experimental ones.Conclusions: The interaction potentials for different ℓ-channels of 7Be have been constructed by considering Morse potential and spin-orbit terms by considering experimental scattering phase shifts for 3He-alpha reaction.
