Post-form DWBA description of coincidence spectra in light ion induced break-up reactions

Some of the recen tly measured angular Correlations between outgoing fragments in the break-up reactions induced by light projectiles (like deuteron, 3He and α-particle) have been analysed in terms of a break-up theory developed in the framework of the post-form DWBA. It is shown that this theory provides a good description of the experimental data over a wide range of the bombarding energies and the target nuclei. In some cases the results of the present Calculations have been compared with those performed with a different theoretical model, and the results are discussed. (author)
