Info

This is a wrapper for Ptolemy DWBA calcalation using GUI from CERN ROOT.

The Ptolemy reference is M. H. Macfarlane and S. C. Pieper, ANL-76-11 Rev. 1, Argonne National Laboratory, 1978.

The core program (ptolemy) only works in Linux. For Mac OS, a docker container is avalible. See the Cleopatra/install_ptolemy_mac.txt

Two versions

CERN ROOT

in the working directory, run

./PtolemyGUI

Actually the program can run anywhere. It will copy the DWBA file to the present directory.

Python

in the PyGUIQt6 directory, run

./PtolemyGUIPy.py

This program does not work on any where

output:

  1. DWBA.in, this is the input file for the ptolmey
  2. DWBA.output, this is the output file for the ptolmey
  3. DWBA.Xsec.txt, this is the angular distribution in txt format

the following will be generated by the CERn ROOT version

  1. DWBA.Ex.txt, this is the excitation energy
  2. DWBA.root, this is a root file contains the DWBA angular distribution in TGraph

program structure

It reads the DWBA file, creates the DWBA.in with the InfileCreator.h, run the ptolemy, read the DWBA.out with the ExtractXsec.h, save the result in DWBA.Ex.txt and DWBA.root, and then use the PlotTGraphTObjArray.h to plot in root.

The optical potentials are stored in the Cleopatra/potentials.h
