Microscopic multichannel investigation of the ⁶Li + n seven-nucleon nuclear system at low energies

The ⁶Li + n seven-nucleon nuclear system is studied at low energies within a microscopic approach based on the multichannel algebraic version of the resonating group model. The partial and total cross sections for the ⁶Li(n, t)⁴He reaction are calculated. The contributions of the various partial cross sections to the energy dependence of the total cross section are considered. The results of the calculations are found to be in a good agreement with experimental data.
