Elastic scattering, inelastic excitation, and 1n pick-up transfer cross sections for 10B + 120Sn at energies near the Coulomb barrier

The B-10 + Sn-120 reaction has been systematically studied at laboratory energies around the Coulomb barrier: E-LAB = 31.5, 33.5, 35.0, and 37.5 MeV. Cross sections for the elastic scattering and some reaction processes have been measured: excitation to the 1(+) state of B-10; excitation to the 2(+) and 3(-) states of Sn-120; and the one-neutron pick-up transfer Sn-120(B-10, B-11)Sn-119. Coupled reaction channel (CRC) calculations have been performed in the context of the double-folding Sao Paulo potential. The theoretical calculations result in a good overall description of the experimental angular distributions. The effect on the theoretical elastic-scattering angular distributions of couplings to the inelastic and transfer states (through the CRC calculations) and to the continuum states (through continuum-discretized coupled-channels calculations) has been investigated.
