Elastic Nuclear Plus Interference Cross Sections for Light-Charged Particles

We consider all 25 projectile-target combinations of the particles p, d, t, ³He, and α. We obtained nuclear plus interference elastic cross sections for such interactions by subtracting Coulomb contributions from experimental data. We present evaluated graphs of the following resulting quantities, integrated over center-of-mass scattering cosine: reaction rate, average fractional energy loss per collision, average fractional energy loss per unit path length, and average laboratory scattering cosine. This information can be used to correct energy loss rates due to Coulomb scattering, or in more exact transport calculations that account for large-angle nuclear scattering.
