Abstract
Our investigation aims to study different interaction models of double folding potential for the 6He + 12C nuclear system. The available experimental data for 6He elastically scattered from 12C at energies of 5.9, 9.9, 18, 30, 229.8, 249.6, and 493.8 MeV are reanalyzed within the framework of the optical model (OM) potential of the Woods–Saxon (WS) shape. We created the real part of the nuclear potential using the double folding model (DFM) approach based upon different interaction models such as: CDM3Y6 Paris, DDM3Y1 Reid, and BDM3Y1 (Paris and Reid). Among these models, the potential generated by BDM3Y1 Reid is shallower in comparison with the rest, which reflects the necessity to use a higher renormalization factor. The energy dependences of the reaction cross section and the imaginary volume integral are studied. The calculated angular distributions are in good agreement with the experimental data in the whole angular range.
