Abstract

The results of the elastic scattering of 6He+12C systemat E Lab = 18 MeV by using the barrier and internal wave decomposition of the S-matrix element within the framework of the WKB method are presented. This is the first detailed study for the interaction of the exotic 6He nucleus on different stable nuclei by using a semiclassicalmethod. In this paper, we show that in order to obtain the elastic scattering cross section of the 6He+12C systemat energies close to the Coulomb barrier, it is vitally important to take into account the inner complex turning points in the calculations and the tunneling effects play a crucial role to explain the experimental data. The semiclassical results are compared with the experimental data as well as the quantum-mechanical one.
