Systematical Analyses of Proton-Nuclei Scattering with the Relativistic Microscopic Optical Potential

Abstract：

The relativistic microscopic optical potential (RMOP) of a nucleon above the Fermi sea based on the Walecka's model is used to systematically analyze the proton elastic scattering from nuclei for a variety of energies. It turns out that the experimental data of the differential cross sections, the analyzing powers and the spin rotation functions are reproduced satisfactorily except for large angles. This simple model might be used in the nuclear transport theory and heavy ion collision and to take account of both the nuclear medium and relativistic effects.
