  1. α - particle Optical Potential for astrophysical studies • M. Avrigeanu and V. Avrigeanu • "Horia Hulubei" National Institute for Physics & Nuclear Engineering, Bucharest, Romania • α- OMP extended analysis: 50<A<209, E~8-50 MeV • Analysis of α elastic scattering angular distributions @ energies >BC • Analysis of (α,γ), (α,n), and (α,p) reaction data @ energies <BC 28th Int. Workshop. on Nuclear Theory Rila Mountains 2009

  2. a-nucleus OMP: OPEN QUESTIONS • OMPs from (a,a0)@Ea>80 MeV: DO NOT DESCRIBE (a,a0) @Ea<40 MeV • [Nolte+, Phys. Rev. C 36, 1312 (1987)] • OMPs from (x,a) @Ea<40 MeV:DO NOT DESCRIBE (α,α0) reactions • - astrophysical interest • - applied interest: He damage effects • [Avrigeanu+, Phys.Rev.

  4. Nuclear Model Calculations • OPTICAL MODEL: prime tool for all cross section calculations • Phenomenological OMP - still extensively used - while itsuncertaintiescritically depend on: - particular alpha-nucleus system -incident energy -precision of analyzed data • Microscopic OPs:reduced uncertainties (e.g., OM ambiguities) • Pure elastic scattering OP analysis SCAT2 [O. Bersillon] - phenomenological OP + semi-microscopic (DF) OP (local version) • Coupled Reaction Channel (CRC) FRESCO-2003 [I.J. Thompson] - elastic transfer among weakly bound systems • Composite system equilibration - Geometry Dependent Hybrid (GDH) preequilibrium-emission model • - Hauser-Feshbach (HF)statistical model • STAPRE-H95 [V. Avrigeanu, M. Avrigeanu] (updated) 28th Int. Workshop. on Nuclear Theory Rila Mountains 2009
