Abstract

The elastic and large-angle quasi-elastic scattering reactions were studied with the same nucleus-nucleus potential proposed for describing fusion reactions. The elastic scattering angle distributions of some reactions are reasonably well reproduced by the proposed Woods-Saxon potential with fixed parameters at energies much higher than the Coulomb barrier. With an empirical barrier distribution based on the modified Woods-Saxon potential and taking into account the influence of nucleon transfer, the calculated quasi-elastic scattering cross sections of a series of reactions are in good agreement with the experimental data.

Fusion-fission reactions with a modified Woods-Saxon potential

Journal Article Ning, Wang; Kai, Zhao; Xizhen, Wu; ... - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

A modified Woods-Saxon potential model is proposed for a unified description of the entrance channel fusion barrier and the fission barrier of fusion-fission reactions based on the Skyrme energy-density functional approach. The fusion excitation functions of 120 reactions were systematically studied. The fusion (capture) cross sections are well described with the calculated potential and an empirical barrier distribution. Incorporating a statistical model (HIVAP code) for describing the decay of the compound nucleus, the evaporation residue (and fission) cross sections of 51 fusion-fission reactions have been systematically investigated. Optimal values of some key parameters of the HIVAP code are obtained basedmore »« less

Probing internucleus potential with large-angle quasi-elastic scattering

Journal Article Hagino, K; Washiyama, K - AIP Conference Proceedings

Recent measurements for fusion cross section at energies around the Coulomb barrier have systematically indicated a significant deviation of fusion cross sections from a prediction of double-folding model. It has been argued that the deviation can be accounted for if one uses a large value of surface diffuseness parameter for a Woods-Saxon internuclear potential. We investigate this problem using large-angle quasi-elastic scattering, that is a good counterpart of fusion reaction. Towards a reconciliation of the apparent anomaly in the diffuseness parameter for fusion reactions, we also discuss possible ingredients which are missing in present nuclear reaction models. Those include amore »« less

Failure of the Woods-Saxon nuclear potential to simultaneously reproduce precise fusion and elastic scattering measurements

Journal Article Mukherjee, A; Hinde, D; Dasgupta, M; ... - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

A precise fusion excitation function has been measured for the {sup 12}C+{sup 208}Pb reaction at energies around the barrier, allowing the fusion barrier distribution to be extracted. The fusion cross sections at high energies differ significantly from existing fusion data. Coupled reaction channels calculations have been carried out with the code FRESCO. A bare potential previously claimed to uniquely describe a wide range of {sup 12}C+{sup 208}Pb near-barrier reaction channels failed to reproduce the new fusion data. The nuclear potential diffuseness of 0.95 fm which fits the fusion excitation function over a broad energy range fails to reproduce the elasticmore »« less

Systematic study of the nuclear potential through high precision back-angle quasi-elastic scattering measurements of {sup 16}O and {sup 32}S on various targets

Journal Article Evers, M; Dasgupta, M; Hinde, D; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

Elastic and inelastic scattering have proven an excellent method to probe the nuclear potential in the surface region [1]. A surface diffuseness parameter of around 0.63 fm is accepted as describing elastic and inelastic scattering data. A new method to determine the diffuseness was proposed [2] using high precision quasi-elastic excitation functions at sub-barrier energies, and at backward angles. In response to this proposal, we have made measurements for {sup 32}S+{sup 170}Er, {sup 186}W, {sup 197}Au, {sup 208}Pb[3], and more recently for the reactions {sup 16}O+{sup 144,154}Sm, {sup 186}W, {sup 197}Au, {sup 208}Pb[4].Both single channel and coupled-channels calculations have beenmore »« less

Role of Anharmonic Vibration on Heavy-ion Fusion Reaction and Large Angle Quasi-elastic Scattering of {sup 16}O+{sup 144}Sm

Journal Article Muhammad, Zamrun; Hagino, K - AIP Conference Proceedings

We study the effects of double quadrupole and octupole phonon excitations of {sup 144}Sm nucleus on heavy-ion fusion reaction and large angle quasi-elastic scattering for {sup 16}O+{sup 144}Sm reaction using the coupled-channels approach. We explicitly taken into account the anharmonicites of nuclear vibrations using the sdf-interacting boson model. It is shown that the anhamronicities play an essential role in reproducing the experimental data of the fusion cross section as well as the fusion barrier distribution for this system. Also the quasi-elastic cross section is well reproduced in this way. However, the quasi-elastic barrier distribution has a high distinct peak whichmore »« less
