Abstract

The previously measured angular distributions for 3He elastically and inelastically scattered from 20Ne target at energies 33.4 and 68 MeV are reanalyzed using the microscopic coupled reaction channels (CRC) method, by taking into account simultaneously the 0+ (0.0 MeV), 2+ (1.63 MeV) and 4+ (4.25 MeV) rotational states of 20Ne. A new 3He + 20Ne interaction potential is constructed on the basis of cluster folding model and α + 16O cluster structure of 20Ne nucleus. The agreement between the experimental data and theoretical calculations is fairly good. The obtained β2 and β4 values are in a good agreement with previously reported values.
