Abstract

The elastic scattering of heavy ions at energies where the eikonal approximation is valid is discussed in detail. The nuclear phase shift and deflection functions for a complex Woods-Saxon interaction are evaluated in closed form. The resulting functions represent extremely well the numerically generated ones, even in cases involving the scattering of loosely bound nuclei. The elastic amplitude is evaluated in closed form, and found to be a reasonable approximation to the optical model one. Applications to the scattering of Li11 and C11 are made.
