Abstract

Coupled-channel calculations for elastic scattering of 17O on 13C, inelastic excitation of the first 1/2+ state of 17O and neutron transfer into the ground-states of the 16O+14C and 18O+12C systems are carried out by use of the molecular particle-core model. In this model the valence neutrons of 17O and 13C occupy molecular single-particle states of the asymmetric two-centre shell model during the scattering process. Avoided crossings of the molecular levels are found to lead to enhanced matrix elements of the radial coupling and, therefore, nuclear Landau-Zener effects can be observed in the inelastic and transfer channels. Angular distributions and angle-integrated excitation functions of elastic scattering and of inelastic and transfer reactions are calculated in an energy range of Ecm=8-28 MeV and compared with experimental data.
