The 9Be nucleus is one of the most famous exotic nuclei. Its properties - spectroscopy, electron scattering form factors, matrix elements of electromagnetic transitions and beta decays - have been well studied experimentally [1]. This makes it possible to test various models of the nucleus and neutron periphery on it in theoretical calculations. New experimental angular distributions of elastic scattering α-particles were measured on the extracted beams of the U-150M isochronous cyclotron of the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Republic of Kazakhstan at an energy Eα= 45 MeV. The metal foils made of beryllium were used as a target, the thickness of which was determined by weighing, as well as by the energy loss of α-particles of the radioactive source 241Am-243Am-244Cm and 239Pu with an accuracy of 7%. Registration and identification of scattered α-particles was carried out using the standard ΔE-E technique, implemented on the basis of a PC/AT personal computer. After processing the energy spectra, differential cross sections for the scattering of α-particles in center-of-mass systems at an energy of 45 MeV were obtained for the following levels of the 9Be nucleus: the ground state (3/2-), as well as for the excited states 2.43 MeV (5/2-) and 6.38 MeV (7/2-) in the angle range up to 166o (for elastic scattering).
An analysis of elastic and inelastic scattering of α-particles was carried out within the framework of the optical model and the coupled channel method using the FRESCO program [2]. Good agreement between the calculated data and the experimental differential cross sections has been achieved.
