Description of Four-Body Breakup Reaction with the Method of Continuum-Discretized Coupled-Channels

Nuclear Theory 2009-08-05 v3

Abstract

We present a method for smoothing discrete breakup SS-matrix elements calculated by the method of continuum-discretized coupled-channels (CDCC). This smoothing method makes it possible to apply CDCC to four-body breakup reactions. The reliability of the smoothing method is confirmed for two cases, 58^{58}Ni(dd, pnp n) at 80 MeV and the E1E1 transition of 6^6He. We apply CDCC with the smoothing method to 6^6He breakup reaction at 22.5 MeV. Multi-step breakup processes are found to be important.
