Abstract

The elastic scatterings of $\alpha$ particles on $^{16}$O, $^{24}$Mg, $^{28}$Si, $^{58}$Ni, $^{116}$Sn and $^{197}$Au targets at $E_{lab}$ = 240 MeV have been analyzed by using the parametrized phase-shift model. The calculated elastic differential cross sections show fairly good agreement with the experimental data. The oscillatory structures observed in the angular distributions can be explained due to the strong interference between the near-side and the far-side scattering amplitudes. Strong absorption radii gradually increase as the target nucleus becomes heavier and provide a good estimate of the reaction cross sections. The reaction cross sections are found to display an approximately linear dependence of ($A_{P}^{1/3}+A_{T}^{1/3})^2$. We also investigate the effect of the $\mu$ value related with the strength of the real nuclear phase shift on the elastic scattering cross sections.
