abstract
2015 AIP Publishing LLC. The elastic and inelastic scattering of 17,18 O with light targets has been undertaken at 12 MeV/nucleon in order to determine the optical potentials needed for the transfer reaction 13 C( 17 O, 18 O) 12 C. Optical potentials in both incoming and outgoing channels have been determined in a single experiment. This transfer reaction was used to infer the direct capture rate to the 17 F(p,) 18 Ne which is essential to estimate the production of 18 F at stellar energies in ONe novae. We demonstrate the stability of the ANC method and OMP results using good quality elastic and inelastic scattering data with stable beams. The peripherality of our reaction is inferred from a semiclassical decomposition of the total scattering amplitude into barrier and internal barrier components. Comparison between elastic scattering of 17 O, 18 O and 16 O projectiles is made.
