Abstract

The angular distributions of neutrons elastically scattered from the deformed nucleus 181Ta was measured between 2.5 and 8.0 MeV. The results were compared with optical-model calculations using both a spherical and a non-spherical potential. The angular distributions calculated with a non-spherical potential fit the experiments better than those calculated with a spherical potential.
