Potential model with bound-to-continuum approach for low-energy nucleon radiative capture by ${}^{12}$C and ${}^{16}$O

Abstract

The nucleon radiative capture reactions are important in pure and applied nuclear physics, especially in nuclear astrophysics. The keV-nucleon radiative capture reactions are studied with ${}^{12}$C and ${}^{16}$O targets using the bound-to-continuum potential model in which both scattering and bound states are treated simultaneously and based on the Skyrme Hartree-Fock approximation. The obtained results are shown to be in good agreement with the available experimental data. Alongside astrophysical aspects, the nuclear structure features were revisited for enlarging the prospect of adopting the nucleon radiative capture processes as a spectroscopic tool.
