Nuclear interactions at volume reflection: Perturbative treatment
Excess of nuclear interaction probability at volume reflection is evaluated within the approximation of dominance of the continuous planar potential and thin nuclear concentrations. The domain of the adopted approximations is determined. An estimate of the volume capture probability is provided. The...

Summary: | Excess of nuclear interaction probability at volume reflection is evaluated within the approximation of dominance of the continuous planar potential and thin nuclear concentrations. The domain of the adopted approximations is determined. An estimate of the volume capture probability is provided. The theoretical predictions for inelastic nuclear interaction probability and for the final beam divergence are compared with the results of recent experiments, with satisfactory agreement within the theory applicability domain. |
