An investigation of the role of spectroscopic factors in the breakup reaction of Be-11

The experimental elastic cross section data of the projectile Be-11 on target C-12 at 49.3 MeV/nucleon energy is analysed. The calculations for the elastic scattering are performed by the phenomenological optical model. The different optical potentials to include breakup effects into the calculations, which are neutron+C-12, neutron+ Be-10 and Be-10+C-12, are described with the aid of the global potentials for neutron interactions and fitted to experimental data for the core and target interaction. Also, the first analysis of the optical model for Be-10 on target C-12 at 39.1 MeV is done for building the interaction potential of the core and the target for Be-11. For investigating the effects of the spectroscopic factors, obtained factors from the direct capture process using the nuclear level density are compared with the previous cross section and spectroscopic factor results. Obtained results for the elastic cross section reproduce the experimental data very well and show the requirement of including spectroscopic properties such as, spectroscopic factors and density of the excited states, to explain this elastic cross section data.
