Abstract

In this paper, the quasi-elastic scattering (p, n) reactions are studied for a wide range of target nuclei ¹³C, ¹⁴C, ⁴⁸Ca, ⁹⁰Zr and ²⁰⁸Pb and different incident energies (35-160 MeV). The phenomenological Optical model potential and density independent approaches are used for these calculations in comparison with density dependent semi-microscopic approach. The density dependent parameters are modified to achieve the best calculations for many targets at different energy levels.

Keywords: Quasi-elastic scattering, single folding, lane potential.
