The $A$ dependence of energies $E_1$ (dash-dotted) below which the depth $W_D$ is constant, $E_2$ (solid) corresponding to $0.9B$, $E_3$ (dashed), and $E_4$ (dotted) given in Table and the energy ranges (thick bars) of the $(\alpha ,x)$ reaction data involved in this work for $A>113$, as well as formerly analyzed (thin bars) and additionally checked in Ref. [2] for $A<90$.Reuse & Permissions

Figure 2

Comparison of measured [7, 11] and (a,c) calculated $(\alpha ,\gamma )$ and $(\alpha ,n)$ reaction cross sections for the target nuclei ${}^{113,115}\mathrm{In}$ nuclei, using the OMPs of Refs. [22] (dotted curves), [23] (dash-dotted), and Table (solid). (b,d) The latter comparison for ${}^{113,115}\mathrm{In}$$(\alpha ,n)$ reactions that produce the ground ${}^{116,118}\mathrm{Sb}$${}^g$ and isomeric ${}^{116,118}\mathrm{Sb}$${}^m$ states.Reuse & Permissions

Figure 3

Comparison of calculated $\alpha$-particle total reaction cross sections using the OMP parameters of Ref. [22] (thin solid curves), those obtained for energies above the energy limit $E_2$ (Table ) by elastic-scattering analysis alone (dashed), and their final values (dotted), as well as of the measured [11] and calculated cross sections of $(\alpha ,x)$ reactions by using the OMP of this work (solid) and Rauscher [23] (dash-dotted) for the target nuclei ${}^{121,123}\mathrm{Sb}$, ${}^{127}\mathrm{I}$, ${}^{136}\mathrm{Xe}$, and ${}^{139}\mathrm{La}$. The dash-dot-dotted curve for the target nucleus ${}^{127}\mathrm{I}$ (d) corresponds to the OMP of this work and a $20\%$ decrease of the radiative width of $s$-wave neutron resonances used for normalization of the $\gamma$-ray strength function (see text).Reuse & Permissions

The same as in Fig. 3 but for the target nuclei ${}^{141}\mathrm{Pr}$, ${}^{150}\mathrm{Nd}$, ${}^{144}\mathrm{Sm}$, ${}^{159}\mathrm{Tb}$, ${}^{165}\mathrm{Ho}$, and ${}^{169}\mathrm{Tm}$.Reuse & Permissions

Figure 5

The same as in Fig. 3 but for the target nuclei ${}^{181}\mathrm{Ta}$, ${}^{192}\mathrm{Os}$, ${}^{191}\mathrm{Ir}$, and ${}^{197}\mathrm{Au}$, except the dash-dot-dotted curve for the target nucleus ${}^{197}\mathrm{Au}$ (d), which corresponds to the OMP of this work and a $20\%$ increase of the radiative width of $s$-wave neutron resonances used for normalization of the $\gamma$-ray strength function.Reuse & Permissions
