Abstract

The OptModel high-precision optical-model program code aimed at solving a wide set of problems related to the elastic scattering and n, p, d, t, 3,4,6He, 6Li nuclear reactions on spherical nuclei (or ones close to spherical) is described. A phenomenological optical potential in the Woods–Saxon form is used in this code. The main features of the program are described. The technique for solving a Schrödinger radial equation in the interior region is given in detail. The results from tests and research calculations are described. The results from executing a simultaneous analysis of a great deal of experimental data on elastic scattering at different energies to obtain the energy dependence of optical potential parameters are also presented.
