Dear mathgroup
I am new to math 5.1 and like assistance solving the calculations for
cross sections
I am using (...r-matrix approach---------
parameters: y is cross section, x is energy and t is the angle (in
degrees). The summation of l is from 0 to n=7.
sqrt is the square root. Pl is the cosine of the Legendre polynomial.
j=t/2 and
u=-2.15*ln(sin(j))...)
the equation which is:
y=1+3.4*x*sin^4(j)*[sum(
Bl*Pl)]+[1.86*sqrt(x)*sin^2(j)*(sum(Tl*Pl*cos(u))-sum(Rl*Pl*sin(u))]
Bl, Tl and Rl are unknowns to be calculated from the fit to the data.
This means that 3 sets of data (2D vectors (x and y)) are needed for
the determination.
I have added the data points since I do not have a site on the web to
place them.
t=85.7
t=123.8 t=152.6

Please note that in literature various other symbols are used for the
cross sections, the energies and angles. Mine here are just for
simplicity.
I hope to hear from you soon. Thanks a million.
