Abstract

The α + α bremsstrahlung is studied in a microscopic cluster approach with the Generator Coordinate Method associated with the Microscopic R-matrix Method. Two effective nucleon-nucleon interactions are considered: the Minnesota potential and a potential derived from the realistic Argonne AV18 potential by the Unitary Correlation Operator Method. The influence of the nucleon-nucleon interactions are discussed and the results are compared with experimental data.

Highlights

  • For a long time, microscopic approaches have been used to describe nuclear collisions [1, 2]

  • Following the principle of the Microscopic R-matrix Method [13], the configuration space is divided in two regions at the channel radius a: an internal region (ρ < a) where the wave function is described by the Generator Coordinate Method [14, 2] and an external region (ρ > a) where the antisymmetrization between nuclei is neglected and the αα interaction is considered purely Coulombic

  • The wave functions are evaluated by solving the Schrodinger equation (2) on the internal region requiring the continuity of the wave function at the channel radius a

Summary

Introduction

Microscopic approaches have been used to describe nuclear collisions [1, 2]. Microscopic descriptions of the α + α bremsstrahlung were previously performed [7, 8]. The scattering wave functions were obtained from a Schrodinger equation based on effective NN potentials: the Volkov [9] and Minnesota potentials [10].
