Description

New experimental data has been obtained for the 208Pb(α, α') reaction induced by 160 MeV alpha particles, for inelastic scattering to forward angles. These data are used to investigated the applicability of the multistep scattering theory of Feshbach, Kerman, and Koonin for describing this reaction. In the mechanism studied the incident alpha particle remains intact throughout the scattering process, exciting nucleon particle-hole pairs through multistep process. (author)
