Wood-Saxon alpha potential for p-nuclei $^{106}$Cd and $^{113}$In

Abstract

Alpha elastic scattering of p-nuclei were studied for calculating optical potentials. Choice of the $\alpha$-optical potentials are important to measure the reaction rates of p-process. $^{106}$Cd$(\alpha,\alpha)^{106}$Cd and $^{113}$In$(\alpha,\alpha)^{113}$In elastic scattering cross-section data were used to determine the potential parameter sets at E$_{lab}$= 16.1-27 MeV for $^{106}$Cd and E$_{lab}$=16.14, 19.4 MeV for $^{113}$In system. A Wood-Saxon potential form factor is used for both real and imaginary part. The potential parameters extracted in the present study exhibit a satisfactory result with respect to existing global potential parameters.
