- 요약A key ingredient for modeling nuclear reactions of all kinds is the optical potential, an effective interaction between nucleons and nuclei. Formally, it results from a reduction of the many-body quantum mechanics of the A-body nucleus to a single-nucleon scattering state interacting with an A-1 body core, and can be constructed microscopically using realistic nucleon-nucleon forces. However, the workhorses in nuclear reaction modeling and nuclear data evaluation are phenomenological optical potentials, fit primarily to elastic scattering cross sections on \uD835\uDEFD-stable isotopes. Extrapolating to unstable, neutron rich, isotopes - as in the case for nuclear fission, or the astrophysical r-process - presents a source of un-quantified uncertainty.In this work, we take steps to push the boundary of our quantitative modeling of nuclear reactions away from the valley of \uD835\uDEFD-stability and into the fission fragment region. We perform the first uncertainty quantification and comparison of optical models in observables relating to the de-excitation of fission fragments, using a phenomenological potential constrained by decades of scattering data, and a microscopic potential built from chiral forces consistent with quantum chromodynamics. We find large uncertainties, especially for neutron-fragment correlated observables, and discuss future calibrations of fission model parameters. Next, we discuss the relationship between nuclear matter and the optical model. We explore the implications of the isovector dependence of the optical potential on the symmetry energy of nuclear matter, a fundamental quantity governing phenomena from the scale of nuclei to neutron stars. We show that scattering observables on \uD835\uDEFD-stable nuclides are poor constraints of the symmetry energy, relative to a theoretical approach.Finally, to make future Bayesian calibration of optical potentials to new constraints, like those from fission, more computationally tractable, we develop and demonstrate a novel, projective model order reduction scheme, Active Subspace Quilting, an extension of the Reduced Basis Method to nonlinear manifolds. We demonstrate a 3 order of magnitude speedup with negligible loss of accuracy.
