Various corrections to the eikonal approximations are studied for two- and three-body nuclear collisions with the goal to extend the range of validity of this approximation to beam energies of 10 MeV/nucleon. Wallace's correction does not…
Background: The eikonal approximation is a high-energy reaction model which is very computationally efficient and provides a simple interpretation of the collision. Unfortunately, it is not valid at energies around 10 MeV/nucleon, the range…
Background: For its simplicity, the eikonal method is the tool of choice to analyze nuclear reactions at high energies ($E>100$ MeV/nucleon), including knockout reactions. However, so far, the effective interactions used in this method are…
