Abstract

Alpha-particle scattering cross sections have been measured at 15, 18 and 19 MeV from the ground state and first excited state of 52Cr, 56Fe, 60Ni and 64Zn. Excitation functions have also been measured for inelastic α-scattering from 52Cr and 60Ni. The data extends into the forwardangle Coulomb-nuclear interference region. The results are analysed with the optical model and DWBA, using the deformed potential model. The relative and absolute magnitudes of the nuclear and Coulomb deformation parameters and the shapes of the form factors have been deduced from the data. The importance of data in the Coulomb-nuclear interference region in determining these quantities is demonstrated.
