* Nuclear Model Calculations with POD Code /1/ *
***************************************************************
1. Theoretical models
The POD code is based on the spherical optical model, the
distorted-wave Born approximation (DWBA), one-component exciton
preequilibrium model, and the Hauser-Feshbach-Moldauer statis-
tical model. With the preequilibrim model, semi-empirical
pickup and knockout process can be taken into account for
composite-particle emission. The gamma-ray emission from the
compound nucleus can be calculated within the framework of the
exciton model. The code is capable of reading in particle
transmission coefficients calculated by separate spherical or
coupled-channel optical model code.

5. Gamma-ray strength functions
M1, E2: Standard Lorentzian (SLO)
E1 : Standard Lorentzian (SLO) /11/
The position and width parameters in the E1
radiation were taken from the tabulation of
Dietrich and Berman/12/.
6. Preequilibrium process
Preequilibrium is on for n, p, d, t, He-3, and alpha.
The single particle state density parameters were
8.222, 7.801, 7.640, 7.390, 7.990, 7.742, 7.612 (MeV^-1)
for Nb-96, Nb-95, Zr-95, Y-92, Zr-94, Zr-93, and Y-93.
Effects of the particle pickup (and knockout for alpha) were
estimated using the semi-empirical formulas by Kalbach/13/.
These components were multiplied by a factor of two and
added to the statistical model calculation.
Preequilibrium capture is on (the parameters were obtained
from /12/).
