Exclusive breakup of 17F on 58Ni and 208Pb within the continuum-discretized coupled-channels method

Description

An analysis of the elastic and exclusive breakup of 17F on 58Ni and 208Pb targets is presented. The study is undertaken using the continuum-discretized coupled-channels (CDCC) method, assuming a core+valence model for the 17F projectile. The results are compared with recent data published for these reactions. The calculations show that the exclusive breakup cross sections contain contributions from high multipoles, as well as a complicated interplay between Coulomb and nuclear couplings. This makes it difficult to extract radiative capture cross sections or structure information from the analyzed data.
