Abstract
An energy-dependent Lane-model nucleon-nucleus optical potential is presented. The isovector strength parameters of the potential have been determined by fitting (p, n) IAS angular-distribution data between 25 and 45 MeV for targets from 48Ca to 208Pb. The isoscalar strength parameters have been obtained by requiring that the Lane-model potential reproduce the Becchetti-Greenlees Coulomb-corrected proton potential. The energy associated with the proton in all energy-dependent parts of the potential is reduced by the average Coulomb potential inside the nucleus. The main result of the parameter search, other than determining the strength of the isovector energy dependence, is to redistribute the isovector strength found by Becchetti and Greenlees between the real-volume and imaginary-surface terms. The Lane-model optical potential so obtained is reasonably successful in reproducing (p, p), (p, n) IAS, and (n, n) scattering over a wide mass and energy range.
