Abstract

Coulomb modified Glauber model has been applied to calculate α total reaction cross-section for 12 C , 16 O and 40 Ca nuclei in the rigid projectile model using microscopic N-α amplitude which is evaluated in terms of NN scattering amplitude parameters. Using realistic densities for target nuclei and the same input information, we find that the predictions of the rigid projectile approximation for α reaction cross sections are, in general, in better agreement with the experimental data than those of the optical limit approximation.
