Difference of surface effects in the inclusive (p, p'x) and (d, d'x) reactions
Previous studies have revealed surface effects in inclusive $(n, n'x)$ and $(p, p'x)$ reactions. These findings have contributed significantly to the improvement of nuclear data evaluation. However, surface effect in inclusive $(d, d'x)$ reaction has hardly been investigated. The purpose of this study is to investigate the difference of the surface effects in the $(p, p'x)$ and $(d, d'x)$ reactions. We also aim to clarify the origin of the difference. The energy spectra and their radial distributions for the $(p, p'x)$ and $(d, d'x)$ reactions are calculated by the one-step semiclassical distorted wave model. In the region with small energy transfer, the radial distribution of the energy spectra for the $(d, d'x)$ reaction is found to be shifted toward the outer region of the nucleus more than that of the $(p, p'x)$ reaction. Furthermore, the calculations ignoring the nuclear absorption show that the radial distributions in the two reactions are nearly identical. The surface effect in the $(d, d'x)$ reaction is more pronounced than in the $(p, p'x)$ reaction. A significant cause of the difference is that deuteron undergoes stronger absorption by the nucleus than proton.
