Spin observables in 71A MeV 6,8He-hydrogen scattering

Abstract

Predictions of cross sections and analyzing powers using g-folding optical potentials for the scattering of 71A MeV 6,8He ions from (polarized) hydrogen are compared with data. A g-folding model in which exchange amplitudes are evaluated explicitly was used with wave functions of 6,8He specified from a no-core shell model that used a complete (0+2+4)âω basis. The analyzing powers reveal some sensitivities to the details of the wave functions, especially in the case of halo nuclei. © 2013 American Physical Society.
