Scattering and transfer reactions for 6, 7Li + 90, 91Zr

Elastic scattering data have been measured for the ⁷Li + ⁹⁰Zr, ⁶Li + ⁹⁰Zr, and ⁶Li + ⁹¹Zr systems at E(Li) = 34 MeV. Inelastic scattering data for the ⁷Li + ⁹⁰Zr and ⁶Li + ⁹⁰Zr systems were also measured for the 2⁺(2.18 MeV) and 3^?(2.75 MeV) states in ⁹⁰Zr and the $\text{1}\text{2}{}^{\mathrm{?}}\text{(0.48}\text{MeV}\text{)}$ state in ⁷Li. Optical model analyses of the elastic scattering data and DWBA analyses for the states in ⁹⁰Zr were performed. The deduced deformation lengths for the 2⁺ state agreed with those extracted in other studies but the deformation length for the 3^? state was smaller. The ⁹⁰Zr(⁷Li, ⁶Li)⁹¹Zr angular distributions were measured for the 1.21 and 2.03 MeV states and the 2.19 MeV doublet in ⁹¹Zr. Also, ⁹⁰Zr(⁷Li, ⁶He)⁹¹Nb angular distributions were measured for the ground states, 0.10, 3.41 and 4.82 MeV states in ⁹¹Nb. The transitions well matched in angular momentum were described by finite-range DWBA calculations, while other transitions displayed the same phase problems seen with heavier ions. The extracted spectroscopic information was consistent with the results of other reaction studies. At the present energy, it was not possible to determine whether the l = 1 phase problem that occurs for heavy-ion single-nucleon transfer reactions on 2s-1d shell nuclei occurs in ⁹¹Zr also.
