Abstract

The variation of the total neutron cross section, Δσalign, on Co59 due to nuclear alignment of the target has been measured over the energy range from 0.8 to 20 MeV employing a cobalt single crystal with a 34% nuclear alignment. The results show that Δσalign oscillates from a minimum of -5% at about 2.5 MeV to a maximum of + 1% at about 10 MeV. The data were successfully fitted by optical model coupled-channel calculations. The coupling terms were deduced from a model representing the Co59 nucleus as a vibrational Ni60 core coupled to a proton hole in a (1f72) shell, without free parameters. The optical model parameters were determined by fitting the total cross section, which was independently measured. The theoretical calculations show that, at lower energies, Δσalign depends appreciably on the coupling with the low-lying levels.

NUCLEAR REACTIONS Co59+n, En=0.820 MeV; measured σT and deformation effect Δσalign; data analyzed by coupled-channel calculations; deduced optical model parameters; no free parameters used in coupling terms.
