Abstract

An energy dependent complex optical potential between two nuclei is calculated from the potential energy density for two colliding nuclear matters generated by solving the Bethe-Goldstone equation in whichNΔ and ΔΔ channels are explicitly coupled to theNN channel. By adding the contributions from the third and fourth order ring diagrams and the relativistic correction to the calculated potential energy density, the saturation property of a nuclear matter is reasonably well reproduced. This is used together with the kinetic energy density to calculate the optical potential for the12C+12C system in the energy density formalism with the local density approximation. The surface correction term and the symmetry energy term in the energy density functional are determined to reproduce the observed binding energy and the rms radius of12C. Using this potential, the differential cross sections for elastic12C-12C scattering atE lab=1440 and 2400 MeV are calculated and compared with recent experimental data.
