Triton Reactions near 2 MeV: Elastic Scattering

Tritons have been elastically scattered from a number of light nuclei, and the data have been analyzed in terms of the optical model. Geometries have been found which are applicable to ${}_{}{}^9{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Be}$, ${}_{}{}^{10,11}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{B}$, and ${}_{}{}^{12}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{C}$, and to ${}_{}{}^{19}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{F}$ and ${}_{}{}^{20}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Ne}$. The real central well depths are approximately 140 MeV, and the spin-orbit well depth is greater than that expected from theoretical considerations. Ambiguities in the parameters are discussed.
