The Folding Potential of Elastically Scattered d+ 24Mg Employing B3Y-Fetal Interaction within the Double Folding Model Framework

Study’s Excerpt/Novelty In this study, double-folding model with the B3Y-Fetal interaction was applied to derive optical potentials for deuteron scattering from 24Mg. The research validates the efficacy of mass-dependent interactions in optical potential calculations by accurately reproducing experimental differential cross-sections across a broad energy range. This work advances the understanding of nuclear reactions by demonstrating the suitability of the B3Y-Fetal interaction in modeling elastic scattering phenomena. Full Abstract The analysis of the deuteron scattering from was performed in the elastic channel using the double-folding model to evaluate the optical potentials of the present study. Both the real and the imaginary parts of the optical potentials were computed using a mass-dependent interaction (B3Y-Fetal) in the double-folding formalism. The derived double-folding potentials were used to analyse the differential cross-sections of within the energy range of 60-170 MeV. With the derived optical potentials, the reaction and differential cross-sections of were extracted in the optical model. The plots of the computed differential cross-sections were made and the results were compared to those obtained experimentally to ascertain the suitability of the derived potentials and the B3Y-Fetal interaction. In conclusion, the optical potentials obtained using the double-folding model with the B3Y-Fetal interaction were successful in reproducing the experimental data.
