The density of available states of the DDHMS pre-equilibrium model

Griffin's exciton model of pre-equilibrium emission and Blann's hybrid model have proven extremely successful in describing the energy dependence and, to a certain extent the angular dependence, of nucleon and composite particle emission in preequilibrium reactions. However, the conceptual basis of these models was called into question by Bisplinghoff already some time ago. In response to Bisplinghoff, Blann proposed the hybrid Monte Carlo simulation model (HMS), which uses only the densities of available states for creation and decay of single particle-hole pairs. The model was later extended, in collaboration with Chadwick, to the double-differential HMS, which we call the DDHMS. This extension is based on the Chadwick-Oblo insky prescription for pproximating the energy-angular distribution of available two-particle-one-hole states. Here, we show how this distribution can be calculated exactly.
