Charge exchange reactions in the Glauber approximation

A treatment of heavy ion charge exchange reactions based on the Glauber approximation is presented. It is applied to the analysis of the reactions C-12(C-13,N-13)B-12, C-12(C-13,B-13)N-12 and C-12(C-12,N-12)B-12 at intermediate energies. Overall agreement is found on the basis of a model whose ingredients are the experimental nucleon-nucleon scattering amplitudes, the phenomenological nuclear densities, and the transition densities derived from microscopic nuclear structure models.
