Abstract:
Hot density distributions of heavy ions generated by a modified Thomas-Fermi calculation at finite temperature are used to calculate the optical potential using the double-folding method and a complex effective energy and density-dependent interaction deduced from a realistic NN (Reid soft-core) force in nuclear matter. The real and the imaginary part of the optical potential become more attractive when the temperature increases.
