The imaginary part of the t_{eff} amplitude is found to increase linearly with the average nuclear density in excess of a threshold value. This phenomenological density dependence of the K^+ nucleus optical potential also gives rise to good agreement with recent measurements of differential cross sections for elastic scattering of 715 MeV/c K^+ by Li^6 and C.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1996-12-02T14:50:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "25.80.Nv", "13.85.Lg", "13.75.-n", "21.30.Fe" ], "keywords": [ "differential cross sections", "nucleus interaction", "medium effects", "consistent analysis", "total cross sections" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 426756 } } }
