Role of neutron transfer in the reaction mechanism of Be+Tm, Ta, Re and Au systems
The contribution of one neutron stripping cross section to the total reaction
cross section has been studied for Be projectile incident on Tm,
Ta, Re and Au targets around Coulomb barrier energy.
The measured one neutron stripping cross sections for these systems have been
compared with the coupled channel calculations. The recently developed global
set of optical model potential parameters for Be projectile has been used
in the present calculations. The cumulative of measured complete fusion (CF),
incomplete fusion (ICF), one neutron stripping and calculated non-capture
breakup (NCBU) cross sections is found to explain almost the reaction cross
sections for all the targets. A very small contribution from target inelastic
states and elastic breakup may contribute to the remaining part. The percentage
fraction of cross section for CF, ICF, one neutron stripping, and NCBU over
reaction cross section show the dominance of neutron transfer and NCBU at below
barrier energies while CF and ICF processes have the major contribution at
above barrier energies.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figure
Investigation of complete and incomplete fusion in Li+Sn reaction around Coulomb barrier energies
The complete and incomplete fusion cross sections for Li+Sn
reaction were measured using online and offline characteristic -ray
detection techniques. The complete fusion (CF) cross sections at energies above
the Coulomb barrier were found to be suppressed by 26 \% compared to the
coupled channel calculations. This suppression observed in complete fusion
cross sections is found to be commensurate with the measured total incomplete
fusion (ICF) cross sections. There is a distinct feature observed in the ICF
cross sections, i.e., -capture is found to be dominant than
-capture at all the measured energies. A simultaneous explanation of
complete, incomplete and total fusion (TF) data was also obtained from the
calculations based on Continuum Discretized Coupled Channel method with short
range imaginary potentials. The cross section ratios of CF/TF and ICF/TF
obtained from the data as well as the calculations showed the dominance of ICF
at below barrier energies and CF at above barrier energies.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figure
Role of the cluster structure of Li in the dynamics of fragment capture
Exclusive measurements of prompt -rays from the heavy-residues with
various light charged particles in the Li + Pt system, at an energy
near the Coulomb barrier (E/ 1.6) are reported. Recent dynamic
classical trajectory calculations, constrained by the measured fusion,
and capture cross-sections have been used to explain the excitation energy
dependence of the residue cross-sections. These calculations distinctly
illustrate a two step process, breakup followed by fusion in case of the
capture of and clusters; whereas for He + and He +
configurations, massive transfer is inferred to be the dominant mechanism.
The present work clearly demonstrates the role played by the cluster structures
of Li in understanding the reaction dynamics at energies around the Coulomb
barrier.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, Accepted for publication in Phys. Letts.
Fusion of 8He with 206Pb around Coulomb barrier energies
5th International Conference FUSION11The experimental study of the fusion of light neutron-rich nucleus 8He with 206Pb is reported in this work. A fusion stack of 206Pb targets has been used for this study. The most prominent evaporation residue (210Po), which has half-life of 138 days and decays by alpha emission, is populated in the reaction. Radiochemical analysis technique is used to extract the yield of this evaporation residueMinisterio Español de Ciencia e Innovación FPA2007-6307
Fusion of Li with Tb} at near barrier energies
Complete and incomplete fusion cross sections for Li+Tb have
been measured at energies around the Coulomb barrier by the -ray
method. The measurements show that the complete fusion cross sections at
above-barrier energies are suppressed by 34% compared to the coupled
channels calculations. A comparison of the complete fusion cross sections at
above-barrier energies with the existing data of B+Tb and
Li+Tb shows that the extent of suppression is correlated with the
-separation energies of the projectiles. It has been argued that the Dy
isotopes produced in the reaction Li+Tb, at below-barrier
energies are primarily due to the -transfer to unbound states of Tb,
while both transfer and incomplete fusion processes contribute at above-barrier
energies.Comment: Phys. Rev. C (accepted
