Scattering of protons by 9B and 10B isotopes at intermediate energies in the diffraction theory

Resumo

Differential cross sections of the elastic scattering of protons of intermediate energies by ⁹B and ¹⁰B nuclei are calculated within the Glauber theory. The matrix elements of elastic scattering are derived with a wave function in the three-particle 2αp-model (for ⁹B) and with an oscillatory wave function (for ¹⁰B). The differential cross-sections are calculated with allowance for the triple collisions on ⁹B nuclei and in the approximation of double collisions on ¹⁰B nuclei. The sensitivity of the differential cross-section to the ⁹B nucleus structure is analyzed. The differential cross section of ¹⁰B at E = 197 MeV is compared to the results from calculations using the distorted wave method.
