Abstract

Detailed angular distributions have been measured for Li7 elastic and inelastic scattering to the first 1/2 state in Li7 (projectile excitation) and the first 2+, 3, and 5 states in 40Ca at E(7Li)=34 MeV. Distorted-wave Born approximation and coupled-channels calculations of the inelastic processes were carried out with both Woods-Saxon and microscopic double-folded real optical potentials. No renormalization of the real double-folded potential is needed to fit the elastic data when the contribution from the ground state quadrupole moment of Li7 is accounted for in coupled-channels calculations, otherwise a renormalization of 0.6 is required. Moreover, these coupled-channels calculations matched the phase of the oscillations in the projectile excitation data, while calculations employing a Woods-Saxon real potential did not. The calculations for the excitation of states in Ca40 were insensitive to the form of real potential chosen.
