Abstract

Inelastic scattering to the lowest 2+, 3, and 5 states in Ca40 was studied for O16 + Ca40 at Elab(O16)=60 MeV. The angular distributions are compared to distorted-wave and coupled-channel Born-approximation predictions. The results show that the effect of the 3 inelastic excitation on the elastic scattering wave function has to be treated explicitly in order to reproduce the angular distributions. This is particularly evident for the 5 transition, despite the fact that direct coupling between the 3 and 5 states is negligible.
