Exact finite-range distorted-wave Born-approximation calculations for the reactionNi60(O18,O16)Nig.s.62

The finite-range full-recoil distorted-wave Born-approximation calculations have been done for the reaction ${}_{}{}^{60}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Ni}$(${}_{}{}^{18}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{O}$, ${}_{}{}^{16}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{O}$)${}_{}{}^{62}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Ni}_{\mathrm{g}.\mathrm{s}.\mathrm{}}^{}{}_{}{}^{}$ employing the surface transparent "Brookhaven" potentials. It is found that for this reaction the recoil effects considerably affect the shape of angular distribution at angles greater than 30°. The no-recoil treatment is shown to overestimate the distorted-wave Born-approximation cross section by a factor of about 4.
