Comparing our results with independent continuum-discretized coupled channels calculations, we study the reaction model and beam energy dependence of the E2 contribution to the dissociation cross section. By fitting radiative capture and Coulomb breakup data taken below relative energies of 400 keV with potential models constrained by 7Li + n and 7Be + p elastic scattering data, we examine the mutual consistency of recent S17 measurements and obtain a recommended value for S17(0) of 18.6 +/- 0.4 (experimental) +/- 1.1 (extrapolation) eV b (1 sigma). This result is in good agreement with recent experimental determinations of the asymptotic normalization coefficient of the valence proton wave function in 8B.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2003-08-13T18:35:31.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "26.65.+t", "27.20.+n", "25.70.De", "26.20.+f" ], "keywords": [ "electromagnetic dissociation", "continuum-discretized coupled channels calculations", "analyze 7be longitudinal momentum distributions", "potential model" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
