Very low-energy nucleon + 16O coupled-channel scattering: results with a phenomenological vibrational model

We employ a collective vibration coupled-channel model to describe the nucleon-16O cluster systems, obtaining low-excitation spectra for 17O and 17F. Bound and resonance states of the compound systems have been deduced, showing good agreement with experimental spectra. Low energy scattering cross sections of neutrons and protons from 16O also have been calculated and the results compare well with available experimental data.
