Abstract

Coupled channel calculations for (d, p) reactions were performed in which a strong coupling between the d and p channels was assumed. Reactions investigated were ¹⁶O(d, p) ¹⁷O(2s) and ⁴⁰Ca(d, p) ⁴¹Ca(2p) at E_d =10.5 MeV and the related (d, d) and (p, p) scattering processes. The nonorthogonality of the d- and p-channels were taken into account. The results of these calculations are presented and are compared with the coupled channel calculations neglecting the channel nonorthogonality and also compared with the DWBA and optical model calculations.

Theory of deuteron stripping and pick-up reactions for nuclear structure studies
2020, Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics
Deuteron stripping and pick-up experiments - $(d, p)$ and $(p, d)$ - have been used for a long time to study the structure of nuclei. Today these experiments are often carried out in inverse kinematics in state-of-the-art radioactive beams facilities around the world, extending the boundaries of our knowledge of the nuclear chart. The nuclear structure information obtained from these experiments relies entirely on transfer reaction theory. We review the theory of $(d, p)$ and $(p, d)$ reactions starting from early formulations and ending with the most recent developments. In particular, we describe the recent progress made in the understanding of the three-body dynamics associated with the deuteron breakup degrees of freedom, including effects of nonlocality, and discuss the role of many-body degrees of freedom within the three-body context. We also review advances in structure model calculations of one-nucleon overlap functions — an important structure input to $(d, p)$ and $(p, d)$ reaction calculations. We emphasize the physics missing in widely-used standard approaches available to experimentalists and review ideas and efforts aimed at including this physics, formulating the crucial tasks for further development of deuteron stripping and pick-up reaction theory.
Coupled reaction channels calculations in nuclear physics

Molecular orbitals of nucleons in nucleus-nucleus collisions
1987, Physics Reports
A formalism for the dynamical treatment of the molecular orbitals of valence nucleons in nucleus-nucleus collisions is developed with the use of the coupled-reaction-channel (CRC) method. The Coriolis coupling effects as well as the finite mass effects of the nucleon are taken into account in this model, of rotating molecular orbitals, RMO. First, the validity of the concept is examined from the viewpoint of the multi-step processes in a standard CRC calculation for systems containing two identical [core] nuclei. The calculations show strong CRC effects particularly in the case where the mixing of different l-parity orbitals - called hybridization in atomic physics - occurs. Then, the RMO representation for active nucleons is applied to the same systems and compared to the CRC results. Its validity is investigated with respect to the radial motion (adiabaticity) and the rotation of the molecular axis (radial and rotational coupling). Characteristic molecular orbitals of covalent molecules appear as rotationally stable states ( $K = 12$ ) with good adiabaticity. Using the RMO's we obtain a new interpretation of various scattering phenomena. Dynamically induced changes in the effective Q-values (or scaling of energies), dynamically induced moments of inertia and dynamically induced effective (L·S) interaction are obtained as a result of the molecular orbital formation. An increased subbarier-fusion probability is indicated also by the formation of the molecular orbitals. Various experimental data on transfer are understood in terms of the RMO's and their adiabatic potentials. The transition mechanism between different RMO's is investigated. A specific transition, the Landau-Zener transition definitely predicts the observation of characteristic changes in the cross sections for the inelastic scattering $^{13} C (^{12} C,^{12} C)^{13} C^{∗} (3.086 MeV, 12^{+})$ with the change of the bombarding energy.
Continuum-discretized coupled-channels calculations for three-body models of deuteron-nucleus reactions
1987, Physics Reports
The formalism and results of truncated coupled channels evaluations of three-body models of deutron-induced nuclear reactions are reviewed. Emphasis is placed on breakup, elastic scattering and stripping. The relations of the coupled channels method to the Faddeev method, the adiabatic approximation and the distorted wave Born approximation are discussed extensively. Although the adiabatic approximation is seen to be excellent for the wavefunction in the elastic channel, it significantly underestimates the contributions of breakup states in stripping. Significant effects are associated with coupling to relative l = 2 breakup states.

Coupled-reaction-channel approach for molecular orbital phenomena of valence nucleons in heavy-ion collisions: The 12c + 13c system
1984, Nuclear Physics, Section A
A complete coupled-reaction-channel method is applied to molecular orbital phenomena of the valence nucleon in the scattering of ¹²C on ¹³C, i.e. in elastic and inelastic transitions to the single-particle states of ¹³C^∗(gr., $12^{−}$ ; 3.086 MeV, $12^{+}$ ; 3.854 MeV, $52^{+}$ ) with consi ¹²C core-exchange process. The system is analyzed with respect to the occurrence of higher-order transitions of the direct (inelastic) and transfer (core-exchange) processes of the valence nucleon in ¹³C. It is found in the states of positive total parity that the transfer and direct processes act additively and lead to extreme higher-order steps of the multi-interactions, if the ground state (1p_$12$) and the excited states (2s_$12$ and 1d_$52$) are taken into account. Transitions between the excited subchannels show strong-coupling effects, which are due to the reorientations of the d_$52$ orbitals. The reoriented system couples to the ground channel (l-parity mixing) so favourably that the multi-interaction series hardly converges. The consequence of these observations are discussed in terms of the formation of molecular nucleon orbitals based on the polarization and the hybridization of the original orbitals.
