Detailed study of the Lane potential: Multichannel and polarization constraints

A Lane-model analysis of the /sup 9/Be + nucleon system has provided a detailed description of both cross-section and polarization data for (p,p) elastic, (n,n) elastic, and (p,n) quasielastic scattering over a range of energies. Emphasis is placed on consistency in isospin conservation, data-set completeness, and multichannel constraints. Results favor a symmetry potential which is energy dependent with volume and surface form factors for the real and imaginary wells, respectively. A symmetry spin-orbit (lxsigma-arrow-right)(txT) interaction was found to be unnecessary.
