Abstract: New experimental data of the ¹⁵N + ¹³C elastic and inelastic scattering were obtained at the energy E_lab(¹⁵N) = 84 MeV. The data were analyzed within the coupled-reaction-channels method. The elastic and inelastic scattering of nuclei ¹⁵N + ¹³С as well as the more important nucleon and cluster transfer reactions were included in the channels-coupling scheme. The WS potential parameters for the ¹⁵N + ¹³С nuclei interactions in ground and excited states as well as deformation parameters of these nuclei were deduced. The contributions of one- and two-step transfers in the ¹⁵N + ¹³C elastic and inelastic scattering were estimated. The results of the ¹⁵N + ¹³С elastic scattering at the energy E_lab(¹⁵N) = 84 MeV, obtained in this work, were compared with that of the ¹⁵N + ¹²С elastic scattering at the energy E_lab(¹⁵N) = 81 MeV.

Keywords: nuclear reactions ¹³С(¹⁵N, ¹⁵N), E = 84 MeV, σ(θ), scattering mechanisms and Woods-Saxon potential, coupled-reaction-channels analysis.
