An average set of optical triton parameters obtained from the fit of (t, p) angular distributions

Abstract

The angular distributions of (t, p) reactions leading to 0 + and 2 + states in 50Ca, 65 Cu( 3 2 −L=0 ground state and 5 2 −L=2 state ) , 120Sn, 156Sm, 210Pb and 240U have been fitted to derive 12 MeV optical triton parameters. A mass-independent set of optical potential parameters is obtained which gives good agreement between theory and experiment for all nuclei considered. This set of parameters is suitable for reproducing the shape of angular distributions for L>2. The influence of different triton parameters on relative cross sections is discussed.
