The double-folding formalism for the alpha -nucleus optical potential is revised to study the exchange effects and density dependence of the effective nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction in detail. A realistic density dependent M3Y interaction, based on the G-matrix elements of the Paris NN potential, has been used in the folding calculation. The local approximation for the nonlocal one-body density matrix in the calculation of the exchange potential was tested by using the harmonic oscillator representation of the nonlocal density matrices of the alpha -particle and target nucleus. The inclusion of a realistic density dependence into the effective NN interaction was shown to be vital for a correct description of the refractive alpha -nucleus scattering data. A high sensitivity of the density distributions of the a-particle and target nucleus to the shape of the alpha -nucleus potential was found. which can be used in the folding analysis to test various density models for the alpha -particle and target as well as to choose the most realistic approximation for the overlap density in the dinuclear system. Our results also stress the importance of alpha -nucleus scattering experiment in the nuclear structure study.
