Scientific paper

Cross sections for the dipole radiative capture reactions 7Li (n,γ) 8Li and 7Be (p,γ) 8B are calculated in a two-body model, which is based on a Woods-Saxon parametrization of the nuclear interaction. The well depth is adjusted for each reaction channel so that the measured separation energies and s -wave scattering lengths are reproduced. The calculations are repeated for a wide range of the radius and the diffuseness of the interaction. The predicted S factor for the radiative proton capture on 7Be falls within a surprisingly narrow range of values when the model is calibrated to reproduce measurements of the mirror reaction 7Li (n,γ) 8Li . The simplified model used here is consistent with the shell model approach for proton capture on 7Be but it gives a significantly smaller cross section for neutron capture on 7Li .
