An investigation of the 16O+16O elastic scattering by phenomenological and double-folding potentials in optical model formalism at the energies between Elab=75 and 145 Mev

In this study, the experimental data on elastic scattering of O-16+O-16 reaction for ten incident energies between E-LAB=75.0 and 145.0 MeV have been analyzed theoretically within the framework of the Optical model formalism. In the construction of the real part of the optical potential, the phenomenological Woods-Saxon squared and calculated double-folding model potential forms have been used with new parameters. The analyses using those potential forms have been compared with the experimental data. The most suitable fits have been obtained when phenomenological Woods-Saxon squared potential forms are used in both real and imaginary parts of the nuclear potential. Our cross section analyses have exhibited a very good agreement with the experimental measurements, and agreement with the experimental data is better than the previous theoretical works. Thus, the O-16+O-16 system has been described by optical potentials having a deep real potential part and a weak absorptive imaginary potential part.
