Elastic and inelastic cross sections calculated within the CDCC approach for deuteron induced reactions

Abstract
The Continuum Discretized Coupled Channels (CDCC) equations have been extended to rotational nuclei. Within this approach, the deuteron breakup channels and the target excitations are treated simultaneously and one can calculate both the elastic and the inelastic cross sections. Comparisons of the calculated elastic and inelastic differential cross sections with experimental data have been performed for deuteron incident on ¹¹⁶Sn, ⁹⁰Zr at 183 MeV and on ⁷⁰Ge, ⁷²Ge, ²⁴Mg, ¹⁶O at 171 MeV. Calculations have also been done for ²⁴Mg and ¹²C targets for incident energies between 60 and 90 MeV. A satisfactory overall agreement has been obtained.
