Abstract

An inverse-scattering method developed recently by Münchow and Scheid is used to determine the effective potential between two α-particles. The α-α scattering phase shifts from a microscopic calculation using the generator coordinate method are employed with the inversescattering technique to obtain a unique, energy-dependent optical potential. A comparison of this potential with the direct (or folded) potential clearly reveals the Pauli exchange effects arising from the inclusion of nuclear exchange between the two a-particles. It is shown that the inverse-scattering approach is accurate for the α-α system even at low energies and should be applicable to heavy-ion systems.
