Elastic scattering and total reaction cross sections of $^{6}$Li studied with a microscopic continuum discretized coupled channels model

We present a systematic study of $^{6}$Li elastic scattering and total reaction cross sections at incident energies around the Coulomb barrier within the continuum discretized coupled-channels (CDCC) framework, where $^{6}$Li is treated in an $\alpha$+$d$ two-body model. Collisions with $^{27}$Al, $^{64}$Zn, $^{138}$Ba and $^{208}$Pa are analyzed. The microscopic optical potentials (MOP) based on Skyrme nucleon-nucleon interaction for $\alpha$ and $d$ are adopted in CDCC calculations and satisfactory agreement with the experimental data is obtained without any adjustment on MOPs. For comparison, the $\alpha$ and $d$ global phenomenological optical potentials (GOP) are also used in CDCC analysis and a reduction no less than 50$\%$ on the surface imaginary part of deuteron GOP is required for describing the data. In all cases, the $^6$Li breakup effect is significant and provides repulsive correction to the folding model potential. The reduction on the surface imaginary part of GOP of deuteron reveals a strong suppression of the reaction probability of deuteron as a component of $^{6}$Li as compared with that of a free deuteron. A further investigation is made by taking the $d$ breakup process into account equivalently within the dynamic polarization potential approach and it shows that $d$ behaves like a tightly bound nucleus in $^{6}$Li induced reactions.
