Abstract: (Elsevier)
The real incident neutron-target nucleus vibration coupling within the direct-semidirect theory of fast nucleon capture does not lead to a satisfactory reproduction of experimental data on fast neutron capture in heavier nuclei. The agreement between theory and experiment, however, is improved, if the refined DSD theory involving the complex coupling interaction is applied. The uncertainties affecting the reliability of the free parameters in this coupling interaction are considered.
