Pre-equilibrium cross section calculations with a realistic effective nucleon-nucleon interaction
Abstract
The principle aim of this work is to improve the way in which pre-equilibrium double differential
cross-sections are currently calculated [1, 2, 3, 4]. The theoretical basis for these
calculations is the Multistep Direct Theory by Feshbach, Kerman and Koonin (FKK theory)
[5]. This theory leads to the simplification of multistep reactions as a folding of single-step
reactions through the implementation of the Distorted Wave Born Approximation (DWBA).
The pre-equilibrium cross-sections are subsequently calculated with a multistep direct code.
