Abstract

Angular distributions of helions elastically scattered from 24Mg, 58Ni, 90Zr and 120Sn at Eτ = 130 MeV have been subjected to a “model-independent” analysis in the framework of the optical model. The real part of the optical potential was represented by a spline-function; volume and surface absorptions were considered. Both the shallow and the deep families of the helion optical potential were investigated. The spline potentials are found to deviate from the Woods-Saxon shape. The experimental data are well described by optical potentials with either a volume or a surface absorption. However, the volume absorption consistently gives better fits. For 24Mg, 90Zr and 120Sn both shallow and deep potential families result in comparable fit qualities. For 58Ni the discrete ambiguity is resolved in favour of the shallow family. From the analysis the values of the rms radius of matter distribution have been extracted.
