Abstract: | Elastic α-scattering on the isotopes 40,42,44,48Ca has been studied microscopically within the framework of the generator coordinate method. For energies above the Coulomb barrier the backangle enhancement of the cross section in elastic α-40Ca scattering is explained by several overlapping barrier resonances, while for energies below the barrier the backangle rise is caused by individual long-living resonances which — in agreement with recent experimental data — confirm the concept of an “α-40Ca quasimolecule”. The isotope effect showing up in a different behaviour of the cross section at backangles is due to a different absorptive strength of the isotopes. “Neutron blocking” has been ruled out as a possible explanation of the isotope effect. |
